UAL -

I **think** the Super Hornet was just recently certified though it doesn't have any of the items that you listed. The military was the cause of the exclusion in the first place - or so I was told at the Hornet Safety Systems Working Group in 2007. They started working on getting the strike/fighter community back into the block.

Iwaddle - Though I have not filed into RVSM lately - I have flown in it with the ATC's permission and like advised - I was sure to let them know that I was not properly equipped.
