European airspace flight 30% restores Ash weekend or to northeast China

will not affect flights and weather China's National satellite Meteorological Center said it was closely monitoring Lufthansa 50 passenger aircraft were allowed to transport 15,000 people back to Germany, NATO several F-16 fighter planes damaged EU consider subsidizing airlines Iceland Eyjafjallajokull Ice cap volcanic eruption formed by lingering, since 2001 "　　The largest grounding in Europe since the terrorist attacks continued yesterday. About 30% of flights in European airspace resumed flight yesterday, with open airspace including Spain, Portugal, Italy and parts of France, the Balkans, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey and parts of the Nordic region.　　But the opening up still depends heavily on the state of the volcanic ash movement. Lufthansa, Germany, said yesterday that 50 Lufthansa Long-haul airliners would take off from North America, South America, Africa and Asia in a few hours, transporting some 15,000 passengers back to Germany. The flights will arrive at Frankfurt airport, Munich Airport and Dusseldorf airport on the morning of 20th respectively. The flights will fly under volcanic fumes after entering dangerous airspace over volcanic dust.　　In addition, Germany's second-largest airline Berlin Airlines has two flights approved, from the Spanish resort Mallorca I. De to Munich, one of the aircraft carrying 210 passengers have landed at Munich airport, the other has also departed.　　A number of NATO F-16 fighters were damaged by the engine as they flew over the volcanic dust belt, sources said. The South Korean meteorological Agency predicted yesterday that the ash from Iceland could pass over the Korean peninsula and northeast China around 23rd. But the good news is that the volcanic ash that arrives here has low concentrations and light particles that don't affect the weather or the normal take-off and landing of a flight. China's National Satellite Meteorological Center told the Oriental Morning Post yesterday that Chinese meteorological experts were closely monitoring the spread of volcanic ash in Iceland. The National Satellite Meteorological Center believes that "further research" is needed to determine whether the volcanic ash will affect China and the potential damage.　　The Central Meteorological Observatory also said that there is no relevant information disclosed.　　European "corners" temporary ayu according to International Airport Council statistics, after the eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull ice Cap volcano 14th, about 30 countries feared volcanic ash threat flight safety and closed airspace or restricted flights, 313 airport paralysis, causing around 6.8 million passengers stranded worldwide. The European Air Safety Organization reported that there were 5,000 flights throughout the European airspace on 18th, 24,000 in normal circumstances, and that since 15th, the number of cancellations had reached 63,000.　　In Asia, Singapore's Changi International Airport, which is the main transit place for European flights, has also been canceled for some 120 flights to Europe in recent days.　　However, since 18th, some countries have used the volcano smoke cloud to leave the opportunity to temporarily open the airport. The Finnish Aviation Administration decided yesterday that the airport in Turku and Tampere, in southern Finland, would be opened for 6 hours on the same day. It was the first temporary opening of a domestic airport since Finland closed all its airports in the early hours of 16th. Most of Sweden's airports were reopened yesterday,Mainly for the west and north to the route.　　Another Nordic country, Norway, reopened the airport on 18th. But how long these airports will remain open depends on the specifics of volcanic soot. For example, the German aviation Safety Administration, after a brief ayu of 18th, announced the No-fly, and the German airspace No-fly period from 19th 14 o'clock to 20 o'clock (Beijing time 19th 20 o'clock to 20th 2 o'clock), and then announced a further extension of 6 hours. The Belgian Ministry of Transport announced that due to the presence of volcanic ash in the low altitude flight lanes, the airspace ban in Belgium would be extended to 19th 20 o'clock (2 o'clock 20th). The British National Air Traffic service extended the British airspace ban to 19th 18 o'clock (Beijing time 20th 2 o'clock), and subsequently announced the extension to 20th 1 o'clock (Beijing time 20th 9 o'clock).　　The British Meteorological Office announced on the same day that it would release 4 volcanic ash forecasts every day, "Looking for the weather window allowed to lift flight restrictions". Iceland's white sheep are grey. The South Korean meteorological Agency yesterday released a forecast air flow pattern from the US meteorological department, saying the ash would be on 23rd, over the Korean peninsula, 9-11 kilometres from the Earth's surface.　　27th, 4 days later, may take another 8 kilometers from the Earth's surface airflow, through the south of the Korean peninsula over the sea. The previous day, the South Korean meteorological Agency had predicted that the ash may be around today with air flow to the Northeast China, North Korea and other places, but due to the atmospheric pressure changes in the upper atmosphere, so modified the original forecast time. "The spread of volcanic ash in Europe has gradually expanded, and the Caspian Sea and the Aral Sea near the ridge, so the speed of the flow of the spread of the slow, not too much impact on the Korean peninsula."　　"said the Korean meteorological Agency.　　The British Meteorological Office Volcanic Smoke Advisory Center (VAAC) had previously predicted that the impact of volcanic ash, in the next few days, Europe, Russia northwest, Kazakhstan and other areas will suffer a certain loss, but will not affect central Russia and China and other areas.　　Volcanic ash arrived in Turkey 18th, the country's North 3 provincial airspace has been closed, the next will drift to Turkey's largest city of Istanbul. Iceland's state radio and television reported yesterday that the intensity of volcanic eruptions has decreased, and that the production rate of volcanic soot has slowed down. After 3 days of volcanic dust, local farmers in the affected areas have finally been able to get out of the house, look after their livestock and overhaul their homes. According to local people, "they kept sheep from white to grey, and all kinds of birds got into the stables to get refuge."　　Farmland and roofs are stacked with thick volcanic ash, up to 10 centimeters thick. "This is a disgrace to Europe." The huge losses caused by the grounding of a large number of flights have become unsustainable for the airline industry. Giovanni Bissignany, Director-General and chief executive officer of the International Air Transport Association, said in a news conference in Paris yesterday that the $200 million/day loss previously announced was a "conservative estimate", which has now changed to $250 million.　　He called on the EU to take immediate action to reopen the closed airport, in the context of security assurances. Facing hugeEconomic losses and a large number of stranded travellers, the EU cannot sit.　　After a video conference of EU transport Ministers held yesterday, Busserot, the French transport minister, said ministers wanted to open an "air corridor" to allow more flights in the shortest possible time, if conditions permitted.　　Joaquín, the European Commission's competition commissioner, said 19th that the EU could consider authorizing governments to provide government subsidies to these companies. Basignani, on behalf of the airline industry, is dissatisfied with the EU's response, accusing the 5 days of grounding in Europe of a meeting that "will be a disgrace for Europe in the weeks ahead".
