I understand that the advice from the boffins is that it appears that the current coronal mass ejections do not have a large high-energy component and they are therefore unlikely to be a particular hazard aircraft crew. In addition they may also be contributing to reduction in galactic cosmic radiation through the magnetic field associated with the enhanced solar wind which may lead to decreased average doses for some flights.
