While waiting for flying to resume, keep busy!

Here we are: the anticyclone is over France and the weather is fine across the country, but… Covid-19 has arrived on our territory and we are all stuck at home in lockdown.

Let's look at the glass as half full and stay positive: this is a chance for all of us to finally do what we have put off for so long (we all have a more or less pronounced procrastinating side…). Dive back into our theory books and revise the basics: aerodynamics, meteorology, regulations, airspace and so on.

Go back over the maintenance manual of our machine, take the opportunity to practise preparing our future navigation, get familiar with the new SIA website and with Aéroweb and its "fine mesh" model, which can be very useful for our activity.

That is a range of subjects that will keep us connected with our activity and will benefit our flying in future.

There is also tidying the garage and painting the gate: you might as well do it now... and go flying afterwards.

During this health state of emergency, also take the opportunity to watch or re-watch our videos on our YouTube channel: mechanics tutorials, training tutorials, REV, Microlight Tour and more.

Take care of yourself and your loved ones.
