I have been wondering why there were/are no photos of ash covered airports in Europe.

I haven't seen any in the UK press, but if anyone can find relevant photos they should feel free to post them here if they wish to.

When Mt. St.Helens blew, some of the ash made it as far as Seattle and perhaps further.  I've got vivid memories of ash-covered cars and lawns here in Washington, and of the sun being largely blocked out at midday from the ash

We got a day off of school in Billings, MT, and had traces of ash.

In Denver I had about an 1/8th of an inch of ash on my windshield every day for several days. I don’t recall any flights being canceled and I lived about 2 miles from Stapleton Int. Airport. I think I would have noticed the lack of roof-rattling landings.
