Yes that is exactly what I was talking about re 127.125 and 132.7... so they just skip over the one they would be in for just a short time. What I guess I need to get my mind off is the idea that aircraft have to be on the same frequency.. So in this case, as you say, the same controller has both frequencies so he or she hears it all.
Re me saying there wasn't a boundary, I should have been more clear... that there is shown a sector that is only 132.7 but the one under it is both 132.7 and 127.125... I was thinking that they were completely mutually exclusive, but based on what you are saying, an aircraft coming down from the NE on 132.7 would just stay on it into this more southerly sector before it goes on into ZBW space, whereas an aircraft coming out of Halifax and heading west through this area would invariably go on 127.125 and maybe even stay on it in passing through a corner of the sector just to the north.. so thanks for the explanation...
I am assuming that in the cockpit, apart from having TCAS, they have a display that shows the aircraft around them including their id's.. or do they? Like if a flight is passing over another one that is 2000 feet below, do they know who that is, and if so, is that generally true even if it is a military flight.. such as we cannot see on our consumer level flight depiction websites...??
