Volcano Ash

on the news today they said that british airspace was closed at 12.00hrs and nothing would be flying...except maybe emergency helicopter flights.....so does this effect light aircraft,as i see a cessna land at an airstrip at 13.45??????

Airspace is not and aerodromes are not closed... ATC are unable to issue IFR clearances through it...

anywho, nothing to stop a VFR cessna...

Hope that helps

don't forget that these little buzzers have engine air filter and fly too slow for abrasion to take effect
