If you are given a clearance from ATC to proceed direct to a fix that would take you off route, how do you know you are complying with the minimum altitudes required?
My initial guess is the grid MORA's that are on Low/High charts. However, does this mean that I have to get my chart out and look at them all the way to the next fix before I can comply with the direct routing. My other guess would be MVA's. But, I'm not really even sure what that is. I mean I read the definition of it in the Jepp intro, but still a little confused.
What am I missing here?
