The most famous volcano eruption that I can recall in the 1800's is Krakatoa
in Indonesia.

IIRC, "lots" perhaps thousands of people were killed, but if a similar
explosion occurred today
in that exact same region, the casualties would be in the millions. I saw
an immensely interesting
special on History or Discovery Channel on Krakatoa sometime last year. The
eruption was so
powerful that it created its own tsunami. (Krakatoa was actually a volcanic
island.) The pyroclastic
gases from the eruption skimmed across the surface of the water and affected
land and people
out to about 50-60 miles from the volcano itself. There hasn't been a
volcanic eruption that can
compare with the size, scope, and power of Krakatoa since that time. (Thank
goodness.)

That will be as nothing when Yellowstone blows. I hope that holds of several
thousand more years.

The largest eruptions really made a mess, but Yellowstone has had
smaller eruptions.

I found a website with all the known craters and calderas mapped out,
and there's a bunch scattered all along the Snake River Plain. Lots more
than the CVO site mentions.

Can't find it now, of course, but I did locate this one:

Krakatau was in 1883, and killed about 36,000.

The Tambora eruption (also in Indonesia) in 1815 was about 10 times
larger, killed 10,000 immediately, and 80,000 more died from the
world-wide famine it induced. 1816 became known as "the year without a
summer." There was snow and frost in June, July and August in Europe
and New England. It was the largest eruption in the recorded history.

Not sure if it was larger than Thera or not and that did get a tiny trace in
writing that lasted until now or I think it did.

Even though estimates of the size of the Thera eruption have increased
lately, up to about 60 cubic kilometres of magma and ash, Tambora is
still thought to have been bigger, at over 100.

even allowing for a much lower population back then a world wide
famine death toll of 80k sounds pretty low.

It's a wag. They have no way to come up with a real estimate.

For Europe and eastern North America they could come up with pretty good
numbers. They probably didn't bother counting much of the rest of the
world.

Put the drive on a litter and add a rudder and you will have a workable
airplane. Or at least something that resembles a Ground Effects Vehicle.
Add some weapons and you have some possibilities. Add more R & D and you
may have something with more lift capacity and heavier weapons capability.

Do you know that the area in question happens to be the North
American continent?

That should have been "directional stability". Yes, it would need some
fins, or something.

We have not seen what a "slider" is, yet.
