Up there, where the air is clear

This fantastic animation demonstrates the flightpaths during and after the dust had settled following the no-fly restrictions after the Eyjafjallajökull eruption.

As commented on CR blog:

Airspace Rebooted by ITO World is, according to ITO's Vimeo page, a "visualisation of the northern European airspace returning to use after being closed due to volcanic ash. Due to varying ash density across Europe, the first flights can be seen in some areas on the 18th and by the 20th everywhere is open. The flight data is courtesy of flightradar24.com and covers a large fraction of Europe. There are a few gaps (most noticeably France) and no coverage over the Atlantic, but the picture is still clear."
