Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether training flights have been conducted from RAF Valley since 23 March 2020.
Yes. Following the Prime Minister's announcement on 23 March there was a short pause in flying training to assess the impact of COVID-19. Essential flying training at RAF Valley on the Hawk aircraft recommenced on 31 March and on the Texan aircraft on 14 April. The delivery of all training will remain under constant review as the situation changes.
