Iceland Volcanic Activity

This could impact trans Atlantic travel if a large eruption occurs.
The authorities seem to be viewing it as a serious threat.

Let's see. Should fissures open on land, it will likely not be a big issue. But if we are looking at an eruption off the coast things may look differently. I guess it will be on land.

Let’s hope it doesn’t cause problems.
The warning level has been raised to “Orange” ( whatever that means).

There's a thread in JB covering this (and the previous 2021 eruption) in more detail. https://www.pprune.org/jet-blast/639...d-volcano.html

Unless (until?) this current event starts to affect aviation, please direct contributions to the JB thread.
