Quotes

"Nike is shifting from being a pure product company to becoming a products and services company," Rezab said. "A lot of what they are answering is related to their services – Nike Running and Nike Fuel."
As a result, the most important question we have to resolve is "how long does it take to generate voluminous super-eruption-sized batches of magma?" This may be the primary control on how quickly one super-volcano eruption can follow another
Ian Davies, easyJet's Engineering Director, commented: "The threat from Icelandic volcanoes continues and so finalising the approval of the AVOID technology is as crucial now as ever to ensure we never again see the scenes of spring 2010 when all flying ceased for several days. www.easyjet.com"
Manfred Birnfield, a senior test flight engineer from Airbus, said: "We are all working towards reducing the impact of volcanic ashash clouds, and the technology being developed in Avoid could prove valuable in identifying airspace free of ash contamination and provide data for pilots and airlines on the precise localisation of ash clouds."
