Flights delayed as Japan's 'James Bond' volcano erupts

TOKYO (AFP) - – A series of spectacular eruptions from a volcano in southern Japan fired columns of ash and smoke thousands of metres in the air, with the cloud delaying some international flights to Tokyo.
The 1,421-metre (4,689-feet) Shinmoedake volcano in the Kirishima range, featured in the 1967 James Bond film "You Only Live Twice", continued the series of deafening blasts which began with the start of its first major eruption for 52 years last week.

Didn't know that this is where they shot "You Only Live Twice". Looks like Blofeld's base is completely gone.
