Report from the far South-West, beyond England.
September was our busiest month in the past 5 years. Equinoxial gales now put a dent in activity, quite busy with IR(R) groundschool and sim on the SEP side. Bookings remain firm with new enquiries. On the microlight side, little activity on the flex-wings and fix-wing due weather. However, optimism abounds and there's a pent-up demand.
We're dreading a spike in cases escaping from the local 'hot-spots' involving a food-processing facility and student accommodation, generally low number of cases. Now the blessed tourists have largely gone home, we feel we can venture out a bit from our self-imposed isolation.
