And how does the ash and eruption influence the scene which is not done
aircraft side? Does it work with ALS and  darken the whole scene when there
is a lot of ash? Is the terrain lit up during the eruption, if it's
nighttime?
It would be nice if you answered the question instead of being ignored for
