Saw on the SIGMET reports today Volcanic Ash plumes up to 25,000 feet, which has apparently been causing Air NZ international flight rerouting.

Some amazing shots here.

Oh, and in other Pacific Island news... apparently a women gave birth on a Poly Blue flight from Apia to Auckland this morning and abandoned it in the toilets when disembarking! Story here. Can't ever imagine how she got away with that ohmy.gif

Seems they get pretty nervous about ash - especially after that BA 747 over Indonesia in the 80's - good episode on Air Crash Investigation about that one. Imagine that no warning, cabin full of smoke, then no engines. blink.gif WTH

Bingobob's one of Colin's troll alias- his usual ploy is to try and undermine admin, make a post saying he'll upload photos of a various subject, then disappear for a few months never to be heard of.

Thread locked to save pointless immature banter.
