Airline passengers see volcano erupting in Caribbean

And if you look to your left you'll see a volcano erupting

THIS is the incredible sight holidaymakers witnessed out of their plane's windows - a huge volcano erupting.



A plume of ash was hurled 40,000ft into the sky by the explosion.

The pilot of the Boeing 737 announced over the intercom: "Ladies and gentlemen, if you look to the left of the plane, you'll see a volcano erupting."

Passengers rushed to the side of the jet to snap the cloud from the Soufriere Hills volcano, on Caribbean island Montserrat.

Mary Jo Penkala, 49, flying to St Lucia from Toronto, Canada, with partner Barry Steinfeld, took the pic. She said: "We saw the volcano in all its glory."

The story above was published on 25th March 2010

It's been constantly spewing since 1995

The Soufrière Hills volcano is an active volcano with many lava domes forming its summit on the Caribbean island of Montserrat. After a long period of dormancy, it became active in 1995, and has continued to erupt ever since.

Its eruptions have rendered more than half of Montserrat uninhabitable, destroying the capital city, Plymouth, and causing widespread evacuations: about two thirds of the population left the island.
