Anyone taking bets on when flights will resume? I'm saying not before
end of Thursday, but what if lasted weeks/years? According to
wikipedia the last eruption in 1821 lasted two years. Would/could we
survive without taking any flights around Europe for two years? This
is a more interesting discussion than the general election!

I found his rather nifty web site shows all commercial aircraft flying
across Europe in real time: http://www.radarvirtuel.com/

It's a bit tempremental (probably server overload) but press F5 a few times
and it will come up. Works best for me in Firefox.
