.... what would pilots take into consideration in deciding which flight level is the best?
Of course, length of the trip, and wind, but wind is actually on a 2 hour flight not that important (because if you are flying FL300 or FL400, the difference is not that big).
So, would they just consider "oh, weather is fine today, so we gonna take FL340 for this 300 nm flight, that should be fine", and 2 days later, they say "oh, weather is fine today, so we gonna take FL380 for this 300 nm flight, that should be fine"?
