CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — The eruption of Papua New Guinea’s tallest volcano subsided Tuesday, but thick ash still billowed into the sky and coated roofs and palm trees nearby. The Volcanic Ash Advisory Center in Darwin, Australia, reported volcanic smoke rising as high as 15,000 meters (50,000 feet) on Monday. The nearest large town is Bialla, which is established among palm oil plantations on Ulawun’s slopes 47 kilometers (29 miles) to the southwest, the division said. Hargy Oil Palm Ltd., a company based in Bialla, did not immediately respond to an email request for comment. The division said heavy coatings of black ash were causing leaves to droop in palm oil plantations near the volcano and were accumulating on roofs.

In doing so, she became one of only a handful of Tongan people ever to get a pilot’s license – and the first Tongan woman. Chipping away year by year, course by course, McLeod slowly worked her way toward becoming a pilot. McLeod got her pilot’s license in 1992. “Delivering that (pilot address) in Tongan, flying in Tonga, I felt like my mission was accomplished,” she says. The other Tongan pilots she knows of were also trained abroad.
