still no diversions

This time, they’ll wait until the paint-job gets scuffed before declaring a no fly zone!

There is an land exclusion zone on the mountain and nearby and there have been some arrests for breaches.

There’s a slight difference between fine dust at 10000m and several thousand tonnes of molten lava falling on you from a few hundred metres away.

Iceland’s Volcano Sulfur Fumes Now Bothering People 800 Miles Away - → weather.com/news/science/nor … o-20140912

People on Norway’s coast have reported a strong smell of sulfur in the air this week, and experts say it’s coming from a surprising source: Iceland’s Bardarbunga volcano, 800 miles away.

Bardarbunga sits about seven miles under the Dyngjujökull glacier, which is more than 800 miles west, and across the Atlantic, from Norway. But as Vibeke Thyness at the Norwegian Medical Institute told Norway’s public broadcasting radio station, NRK, weather, along with a very active few weeks at the volcano, have likely combined to push the sulfur into Norway’s air space.

Aside from the bad smell, this stuff does not do electronic components much good in sufficient concentration.

This may be of historic interest.
