Britain Closes Airspace as Volcanic Ash Spreads
Britain Closes Airspace as Volcanic Ash Spreads

LONDON British civil aviation authorities ordered the closure of the
countrys airspace as of noon on Thursday to shield aircraft from a high
altitude cloud of ash drifting south and east from an erupting volcano in
Iceland. The plume of ash shut down airports and forced the cancellation
of hundreds of flights in a wide arc from Ireland to Scandinavia.
The closures left airplanes on the tarmac as the rolling cloud made up of
minute particles of silicate that can damage airplane engines headed from
Britain and Scandinavia toward northern France. News reports said Denmark
also had restricted air travel.
From midday today until at least 6 p.m., there will be no flights
permitted in U.K. controlled airspace other than emergency situations,
Britains National Air Traffic Service said in a statementon its Web site.
This has been applied in accordance with international civil aviation
policy.
The move effectively grounded all flights in Britain from 11:00 a.m.
Greenwich Mean Time (7:00 a.m. Eastern) and affected an estimated 6,000
flights that use British airspace every day, aviation experts said. Oddly,
for travelers, the closure was announced under clear blue skies. Experts
had said earlier that the ash may not be visible from the ground but can
clog airplane engines.
