Volcanic Ash Cloud

While surfing the internet today, it came to my notice that several European Airports were clo
sing down today because of the volcanic ash cloud that was caused by the volcanic eruption in Iceland...the ashes formed from the eruptions created a cloud that has traveled through Europe and caused airports to close.

So at first I thought that the only reason they are closing airports was only because the ash cloud restricts vision....but by digging deeper on the subject, I found out that the main reason was:
Since the airplane's craft sucks in air into the engines, so the air that is sucked from the ash cloud will contain .... Well contain surely ashes that cause failure to the craft's engines!

So back in 1982 a similar incident occurred for a British Airways craft.... as the plane passed through an ash cloud, the plane sucked in the ashes which caused the 4 engines to drop dead!!!!!

So the lovely pilot was an honest guy and he simply announced to the passengers :
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control. I trust you are not in too much distress." Eventually, after quarter of an hour without any power, the engines were brought back to life. Ash had clogged the engines, which only restarted when enough of the molten ash solidified and broke off.

We men hena ba2a nebtedy el hartala....
