It is important to reiterate that expert opinion was clear that there was immense risk associated with the Volcano ash and that airline companies had to take individual responsibilities for their own actions.... Smith, whose arguments were more focussed in the article, held that the degree of risk is what matters and as far as he was concerned the Volcano ash clouds presented only long terms risks and not short term risks and thus there was no cause for the airlines to ground their flights....
