The PN also wants to maintain the proficiency of its pilots.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, trainings had to be stopped which necessitated a travel ban on all foreign nationals, including the British instructors of the PN's AW-159s.

"At present, the remaining factory training mentioned above (mission-essential and operational) have temporarily been suspended due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the travel ban imposed on foreign nationals due to the pandemic," Bacordo said.
