Volcanic Ash Cloud Spells Danger And Brings Uk Airports To A Standstill - Iceland Volcano Eruption

Author: Clive Anderson

There is certainly something to think about when you think of the most recent event of a volcano eruption in Iceland. The entire United Kingdom has ceased all of its air travel and has not released a guaranteed time when this will be lifted. I am surprised at the number of people that are actually complaining about this decision to stop all UK flights due to the Iceland volcano eruption, the severity of flying is not just a precaution.

The last time such an event took place was back in the eighteen hundreds and according to scientists lasted nearly eighteen months.

The volcanic ash cloud that is restricting aircraft from flying and causing so much fear hold small particles of glass, which when sucked in through a jet engine melt on entry and then upon solidify again and adhere to parts of the engine causing it to malfunction.

On top of that is the added effect of the dust getting into the cabin and contaminating passengers due to the sulphur content.

So where people are complaining about not being able to fly at this time it is not a precaution, but more preventing a catastrophe? So perhaps they should be more grateful that the airports have taken this action to stop all flights for human safety.

Beautiful lavender sunsets and chaos are just some of the effects that have occurred from recent global events. Sounds like beauty and the beast.

The Iceland eruption puts you in mind of a 2012 doomsday event to not see any aircraft in the sky, especially when you think about another volcanic eruption happening more less the same time in Japan. On top of that the amount of recent earthquakes that have all been quite large. Seems at the moment the earth is having one disaster after another and the Iceland volcanic eruption could just be the tip of the iceberg.
