We have a very similar picture to you TOO. Although the CAA might not have stopped us directly in March as per #4, the lockdown did mean the airfield banned all but emergency related flights. When the CAA announced that training could resume on the 4th of July, the airfield let us loose and we also got very busy very quickly. Several new studes, PPLs we haven't seen for years and regular CVs from instructors. Until last Sunday written exams almost every day and, although new enquiries have subsided somewhat, the phone is still ringing more than usual. We, however, are somewhat stifled by a queue for maintenance....
