Summary
A flight from Manchester Airport had to make quick abort after flying into a ask cloud from the volcano in Island. The captain of the air plane was the first one to noticed something was wrong. When the plane was around 16,000 feet he could smell volcanic ash. Moments after he smelled the ash the plane lost one of her engines. The pilot abandoned the Thomas cook flight making a detour out over the North Sea before returning to Manchester Airport. Experts think the ash may have clogged the engine bleed valve. This flight was among the first to leave after the UK ban on air traffic.
My opinion
I think this pilot mate the right decision of returning back to England. I think it is ridicules that they take the risk of lathing air planes fly when they are not 100 per cent sure that it is safe. I think they should do more research about how the ask can infect the planes and how long it will take before it is safe to fly again.
