## Departures

IFR traffic departing via BIDEL shall be handed off to STH either crossing BIDEL or passing `A095`. Other IFR departures shall be handed off either crossing the lateral boundary of the airspace or when passing the upper limit of `A095` or `A135`.

### Initial Climb Level

Dunedin Tower shall only climb aircraft to a maximum altitude of `FL250`. Aircraft with an RFL higher than `FL250` can expect higher climb once handed over.
