Black 01 working 252.875 requested routing KEPAD > GODOS?

I suspect GODOS is correct BJ . The Black Sea is swamped with Nav Warns of "military exercises " today , more so than usual.
Presently good heading for the east coast via Norwich

09.00z switching Warsaw radar 233.075, by now out of my area.
233.075 is sector D and T in Warsaw FIR, both in South West Poland, so not a regular Black Sea mission perhaps?

I was reckoning on an airspeed of 400 kts Bremen to the Dutch coast and mlat predicts 420kts , so not that far out , must have a bit if a tail wind.

Slightly odd engine sound as it passed over the house just now?? Different to the usual throttling up and back...
