The obvious risk of this happening to crowded passenger planes in British airspace was enough for the UK's Civil Aviation Authority to enforce a total ban on flights – a move which was mirrored by other northern European countries. The dangers of flying through volcanic 1 ash were demonstrated in 1982 when a British Airways 2 flight from Malaysia to Australia lost power in all four engines after flying into a cloud of dust spewed out by an eruption 3 of Mount Galunggung in Indonesia. After 15 minutes of gliding 4 in a controlled descent from 37,000 feet to 12,000 feet, the pilot, Captain John Moody 5, managed to restart the engines once enough of the molten ash in the engines solidified 6 and broke off. The plane went on to land safely in Perth. Speaking to the BBC last week, Captain Moody demonstrated the typically phlegmatic 7 attitude of his profession. "It was, yeah, a little bit frightening," he said.
