This from the Airservices blurb is laughable:
In recent times there has been a relatively significant change in airspace usage and risk profile. While there has been an overall reduction in air traffic due to the COVID-19 crisis, we have seen in a surge in general aviation activities.
Translation: While we’ve been twiddling our thumbs (but paying management bonuses) due to the collapse in RPT traffic volumes, we’ve had time to pretend to notice all those pesky little aircraft that have always been there but we’d prefer to ignore. They are a ‘problem’, but we have a ‘solution’.
