May the skies be clear and blue and the wind fair with a guiding star to steer by.

They don't have a formal break like the Royal Navy do, I expect they'll keep the flying rate up to meet training demands

I think they lost so much flying/training time to the Ash cloud that they may not have a break!

Any ideas on when they will resume flying?
