Under IFR, you may use Victor airways to fly your intended route of flight. These airways usually have a bidirectional MEA which makes sense to me. But on occasion, you see a Victor airway that has a unidirectional MEA (one altitude for one direction and another altitude for the opposite direction). What is the rationale behind this? Why do they need to have different altitudes for the exact same route?
