Hour building during CoronaVirus in Europe
Hello all,
Seeing the curren situation and with much of the airports/airfields in Europe closed, does anyone know any place that is still running? I need to do some 80h until June and I am looking for a place to do it. Thanks. Miguel |
Germany, but no training. You need to be checked out before someone gives you their aircraft. And eventually that will be stopped as well. They have forbidden VFR flying in Italy and Belgium. I don't know about other countries...

It's not possible in Spain either.

Miguel22, while most of us are being asked to stay home in order to stop the propagation and to minimize/mitigate the risk of Covid19, I do not see it possible, unless it is really necessary/justified to go out.
Taking advantage of this moment to build VFR hours it may be still possible in some places nowadays but it may not be morally ok. Try to make it a mission, get in touch with authorities, remote areas, small towns and create a charity group, use GA to help others by collecting donations (masks, aprons, latex gloves) and distribute them with your airplane. Some small remote hospitals may really need this. You may even get a sponsor/permission from the government. If you manage to do something so positive like this, a lot of people will benefit from your VFR hour building, including yourself. best of luck and #stayHome |
Trying to go somewhere to build hours right now is a guaranteed way to waste money, get stuck and end up with 0 hours.
