I'm wondering why it is safe to land at Amsterdam but it's not safe to land at Heathrow? The weather is the same at both, and they are both in the Met Office 'ash cloud'.
Perception of and attitudes to risk management I guess. What I still don't understand is why flights were allowed into Luton this afternoon, but none were allowed into LHR.

Anyone know why the flights from Canada to Luton were cleared through closed airspace ?
