FlightGear is able to simulate different types and levels of volcanic activity. Activity can range from lava lakes and fountains, to small eruptions at newly forming islands like Surtsey, to the massive eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull which caused severe disruption of aviation in 2010. Advanced weather is able to simulate turbulent windfields associated with eruptions currently (2019/2020).
