The Spruce routes should provide VHF service above FL 290, except for one report over the Davis Strait. You have to exit the UK via Scottish Control at ot north of 60N or enter Scottish at or north of 60N. IOW, not thru Shanwick OAC. it will be radar most of the way once under Island Control, except for a short time over the Faroes. I've done it and the AT section of the Jepps covers it, please read for current facts. Gander Radio and OAC might be a bit surprised by it, but just give you a VHF for 50W.

You bet...I've done it in a LR-35. Route was CYQX-CYFB-BGSF-BIKF-EGUN. If I remember correctly we had VHF communication the entire route.
