Ash Attack: European airspace gradually reopening, but uncertainty the big risk
Flight operations to, from and within Europe are gradually being restored due to a combination of better fortune on the eruption/weather front and an increasingly pragmatic approach by regulators and manufacturers, while maintaining safety as the overriding priority. The UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), in conjunction with the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) has issued new guidance on the use of airspace, covering the Anglo Irish Functional Airspace Block (FAB).
