The flight kl 705 will be inspected directly after landing.
(tonight he will come with results)
When nothing is wrong than flights can leave from far destinations on there journey to europe allready.
It would take days to do a proper inspection; how can he possibly know by tonight? And why is the flight at FL410 when all the ash is below?

he said that when this happens other airliners will start fly destination Schiphol tomorrow.

Seems that Hartman indeed has hot feet and is going for war........
Will he be putting himself and his family and children on those aircraft in order to demonstrate his confidence in the safety of their flights?

Now I know to avoid KLM in the next few months, until the delayed effects of those flights through ash clouds start to show up. Obviously KLM does have its top priority, but it doesn't appear to be safety.
