We're all doomed,...... doomed to die like rats in a trap....  |
all thanks to NATS!
If this were a 'SUPER' volcano then there would be enough Ash to block out the sun for way over a year, then we would all be dead
Nature is pretty cool!

Latest information from the Met Office shows that the situation is worsening in some areas. Based on this information, the situation for Northern Irish airports for the morning is uncertain, due to the new ash cloud.
The latest information shows that Scottish airports should be available from 0700 and more airspace over England may become available from 1300 although not as far south as the main London airports.
We will continue to monitor Met Office information and the situation is likely to change overnight. We will make a further statement at approximately 3am tomorrow, Tuesday 20 April and again at 9am.
