I heard a block of altitudes given the other day to an aircraft. So my thought was, what is the difference between a block of altitudes allowed by ATC and a cruise clearance?
Is it just the fact that the aircraft can not descend below the base of the block whereas a cruise clearance will allow the pilot to descend all the way down to the MEA?
