Like that! Am I missing something though - is there an easy way of finding what route they are on?

I'm running it via Chrome.....and if you click on the individual aircraft symbols a box opens top right of page with the details on. There is a green + and - on the top left of this to expand or diminish the info box. Some aircraft seem to have more info' on departure point/route/destination than others..

I agree with what was said on here earlier. It's almost as if nature is getting its revenge for all the harm we mortals have brought to our planet.

The Gaia hypothesis says that - the earth regulates itself to maintain its environment and that catastrophic occurences are signs that it is doing just that!

Maybe we need to learn to rely less on air travel. I can never understand why businesses don't use technology such as video conferencing more rather than have to jet around having face to face meetings - surely they could save money and be more productive. But then again corporate hospitality would go to the wall wouldn't it?

Looks like it's back again.

Just made it back by the skin of our teeth .. We got out to Florida 2 days after flights resumed the first time, flew back Friday overnight, via Portugal to avoid the ash cloud and the flight just took a couple of hours longer. I see this has now snowballed into much longer delays as the planes fly round the ash, I feel so lucky to have got back so easily! Now got to pick up the peices in the garden

Is the big eruption just round the corner?
