Particulates can damage the turbine blades of engines and also block inlets to the engine causing engine failure. SENSIBLE THING TO BE DONE ME OLD MUCHA LCAB.

Volcanic ash terror: Hero captain describes flying through cloud as "a bit like negotiating one's way up a badger's arse"
A hero airline captain, his courageous crew and their fearful passengers know just what it is like to fly into a cloud of volcanic ash.

Captain Eric Moody was commanding a London to Auckland 263-passenger British Airways Boeing 747 in June 1982 when it encountered an ash plume from the erupting Mount Galunggung in Java, Indonesia.

And he described flying through the cloud as "a bit like negotiating one's way up a badger's arse".

At first Captain Moody, co-pilot Roger Greaves and senior engineer officer Barry Townley-Freeman were unaware of exactly what had happened.

A strange St Elmo's Fire-like light had appeared on the cockpit windscreen and sulphur-smelling smoke started filling the passenger cabin.

Then, within minutes, all four engines had failed.

Cpt Moody had told passengers on the plane: '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 it under control. I trust you are not in too much distress.'

with a name like Townley-Freeman, i'll bet he's manouvered the odd radish up the odd arse in his time at boarding school. No guesses who he'llbe voting for.
 

In Hawaii it is called 'vog' Don't remember planes shutting down for vog though, it would sometimes last days at a time.
