I’m currently flying longhaul, and I want to know about IFR cruise altitudes.
(idk what its actually called but its like even FL westbound and odd FL eastbound)
I am currently flying north, but sometimes my flightplan takes me 350 ish heading then to 10 degrees ish heading and then back
do i have to change my altitude every time?

I suggest using a flight planner such as Simbrief:
it will give appropriate cruise altitudes based on direction, winds, airspace restrictions, etc…
When a flight is heading north/south it will usually stick to one “side” rather than going up and down - but which side they choose can vary.
France and Spain have different RVSM rules where NORTH = EVEN, SOUTH = ODD
i thought u had to pay for simbrief or smth
I’m alr running broke from the IF subscription lol
No - you can use Simbrief for free.
The default AIRAC is good enough the large majority of the time.
ok tysm :)
No problem - any other questions feel free to send me a message :)
Have a great rest of your day!
Nope! Once you fly your first heading then you fly on that for your wholeflight.
