Avoiding Volcanic Ash
Flying back from Amsterdam to DFW on friday with KLM, I saw that we
headed north for Denmark, then turning west, passed to the north of Iceland. Then crossing the southern half of Greenland and into Canada, we proceeded across the Hudson Bay, and passed West of ALL the Great Lakes, and then on south. Now that's what I call avoiding a problem - we had enhanced separation too apparently! Brian W

Nobody (outside Iceland) has actually seen any of the stuff. My wife showed me a moving depiction on an internet Atlantic map yesterday, so I imagine somebody can track the stuff. Brian W
