My husband and a friend took off 10 days ago on a single engine airplane from the U.S. East Coast for Bern/Switzerland as destination.
They had to change their original flight route a couple of times due to bad weather in Maine and Goose Bay and then the volcano in Iceland.
They arrived in France (Brest) yesteday. He says, the airport in Brest is deserted. Their little airplane was the only one that landed. The engines and the cockpit of Air France and other commercial airplanes are covered with huge plastic sheets. He describes it as spooky!
Above is a picture from the volcano that he has taken and sent me yesterday. The distance from the volcano is about 100 km and the flight altitude is 17,000 feet.
