Just had a look at flights in Scotland alot of cancellations.
Suppose it's all safety really but the UK makes me laugh the slightest bit of change in weather and everything seems to come to a freeze.

I think you missunderstand just how much of a real issue these clouds of dust are. Jet engines are grand refined pieces of engineering, and will not tollerate these dust clouds at all. The silicates in the dust become motlen as it passes through the engine and coats the insides in a layer of glass. These play havoc with the engine.
They tried blu-tack, wasn't sticky enough apparantly.I Wish they could just find a way to cork the volcano or something!
That Must Suck For Those In The UK!
