blanket party went bad with a rubber chicki

Looks quite bad...Australia is affected and I guess NZ too. Hopefully all these recent problems clear up before the year end travel season. ----- http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/W...ory_680111.html Jun 15, 2011 Chile volcano could get worse, as travel woes grow People sleep at Jorge Newbery airport where flights were cancelled due to an ash cloud that reached Buenos Aires from the Chilean Puyehue-Cordon Caulle volcano grounding air travel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. -- PHOTO: AP SANTIAGO - A CHILEAN volcano spewing dangerous ash high into the sky, sowing air travel havoc from South America to Australia for the past week, could have even more intense eruptions in the days to come, government geologists warned. 'It is possible there will be a return to increased eruptive activity' of the Puyehue volcano in southern Chile's Andes mountains, which started belching June 4, Chile's National Geological and Mines Service said late Tuesday. It said it was detecting no let-up in the volcano's emissions, which were towering eight kilometers into the troposhpere. It maintained its alert level at 'moderate eruption.' That was bad news for airlines flying into or over Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, southern Brazil, and - half a world away - Australia. Passengers in those regions have had to ditch aircraft for travel by boat or overland, or cancel plans entirely. The chaos recalled the massive paralysis of air travel over Europe in 2010 when an Icelandic volcano erupted. Among the millions of passengers affected was UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon, who on Tuesday had to take a slow boat from Argentina to Uruguay as he pursued a Latin America tour to secure support for his bid for another five-year term. From the Uruguayan capital Montevideo, Mr Ban was scheduled to go on to the Brazilian capital Brasilia. But a UN official speaking in New York on condition of anonymity said: 'At the moment, we have no idea how he will get there.' -- AFP

Acts as a fire blanket. If the engine catches fire, the plastic pins melt and allow the blanket to fall. Its a good thing. Now that's safety to the max
