Ash cloud from Iceland grounds UK flights

NEWS ALERT
All flights in and out of the UK have been suspended as ash from a volcanic eruption in Iceland moves south.

The Air Traffic Control Service (Nats) said no flights would be allowed in or out of UK airspace until 1800BST amid fears of engine damage. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8621407.stm
