The situation has now changed in Europe, where not only the indoor events have been canceled or postponed. Most of the skydiving centers and wind tunnels have been shut down in the meantime, while the corona virus and its impact have not caused any interferences for the sport of indoor and outdoor skydiving in the United States yet.
