Volcanic Ash-Part 2

A plume of volcanic ash from Iceland's Grimsvotn volcano is causing anxiety in some parts of the U.K.

More than 500 flights had been impacted on Tuesday, and many others had to be diverted to avoid the affected area. Most of the delays are slight, as new paths are being charted.

The good news is that the volcano has lost the steam, and having learned from the gross over-reaction when most of European airspace was shut down last year, the impact of this one so far appears to be contained.
