Most of the North-Western European airspace is closed by now. This goes for the whole of Scandinavia, the UK and Ireand, Netherlands, Belgium, Northern France, Northern Germany and it's still moving South. Just listened to the local tower frequency and they literally sent planes from the last stretch of taxiway, just short of the runway, back to the terminal because Berlin approach just signalled they wouldn't accept any further incoming flights. Never heard anything like this. They're expecting Dusseldorf, Cologne and Francfort to close later this night. Ralf -- Ralf R.
