I have noticed this last week that a helicopter school has commenced training In the East Midlands area. My personal understanding of the government guidelines means that this is difficult/not acceptable. If SkyWise is to be believed only GA is allowed under 3 specific rules, they must be:
- solo flights
- flights where everyone is from the same household
- flights in aircraft where social distancing measures can be maintained - such as tandem cockpits spaced by more than 2 metres, or occupancy of separate parts of the aircraft structure
I have been in small helicopters before and don’t think two meters can be achieved! Even 2inches would be difficult. Just wanting to know others views on this?
