In theory aviation or any other sector could do this but I suspect the complexities of it are too great to be worthwhile, making sure a museum is in order is a bit different to flying someone else’s Airbus
I am working on Monday, I will be paid, but after the end of furlough - it's just an hour's Webex training course prior to unfurloughing, so there are most certainly ways around the regulations. Work I did before furlough was announced, but after the date of commencement is being paid to me on Tuesday as part of the regular pay run. I work for a large multinational, based in UK, that has been meticulous in checking the regs., to the extend that they took longer than some to come up with our furlough package.
