I am new to forum, but have always had an interest in planes and air traffic control. Anyway i have noticed Icelandair have some unusual flight patterns. There 757 call sign ICE776 reg. TF-FIH will drop down to about 5000 feet in altitude over Lincolnshire then climb again, it also cruises at 23'000 feet which is unusual. I was wondering if they are testing for volcanic ash.I lost track of it at 4600 feet near Brussels. All for now.

Have you seen this? Icelandair has set up a temporarily base in Glasgow:
Like some other European airports Keflavík International Airport will likely close temporarily on the 9th and 10th of May, due to volcanic ash concentration being above operable levels. European originating Trans-Atlantic Icelandair passengers will be routed to their final destination via Glasgow. Icelandair will operate

Hi everyone. Mystery solved, I did a bit of research and found out ICELANDAIR TF-FIH was converted to a cargo plane in 2006. En-route Brussels it called into Hull, which explains the change in altitude. There's some great photo's on http://www.jetphotos.net/showphotos....gsearch=TF-FIH if anyone's interested.
