P.S. On a flight from Heathrow to Levaldigi (Italy) I had a very late call for the initial descent. Which entailed having to saw off the wings in order to get down in time! LIMZ is just outside the Torino TMA and the inital descent call was not given until about 50 DME from Tango Oscar Papa.

PFE still does not plan the descent for you. It will only respect the hard limits you set in your flightplan.

If you want to come down earlier, you need to change the waypoint altitudes before flight accordingly, or request a lower level during cruise..

The descent profile is in the flightplan. The PFE ATC controller must have been having his tea break or perhaps it was one of his children left to "hold the fort!" and didn't know what to do!!
