NigelH I guess you are frustrated as you have some kind of aviation charter business and if that is the case I am sorry that you are taking a hit with this.

I am not in that business. My job is to turn up, assess risks and fly. I am reasonably good at all normal aviation risks that apertain to our helicopter operation but have no clue about volcanic ash.......so I will leave that up to the expert (or at least more informed people than myself).

Just because you are taking a hit does make these decision worng!!!

For the record, I suspect that you would be the kind of person I would NEVER work for as you are probably the kind of guy who takes unecessary risks to turn a profit.
