Ash tilts a jet photo: RL Rieger/USGS

Heavy stuff: Ash from the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines settles on the tail section of a World Airways DC-10, causing it to tilt onto its rear wheels.

It's very likely a super-eruption would shutdown airports worldwide. (photo: RL Rieger/USGS)
