I don't do training but my work, which is predominately for still and moving pictures, has been very badly affected. I reckon I've lost 20 days' work this year already and most of that is gone for good. By contrast I've picked up just one day's work which was weather related (filming the floods).


I'm only on PPrune today because I've lost a job and I'm at a loose end. That figure of 20 days probably represents 25% - 35% of revenue for March to August so it's quite significant. Although I don't get much involved in passenger charter I hear that is well down this year too.
Apparently we're about to enjoy some lovely sunny weather in the next few weeks; but, then, this was going to be the hotest summer on record....remember?
