HC Deb 31 May 1911 vol 26 c1048
Mr. BURGOYNE

asked why the naval airship "Mayfly" has been rehoused without flight; and when it is expected she will really be available for effective service?

Mr. McKENNA

Naval airship No. 1 was taken out of the shed in order to carry out certain experiments which could not be done inside. The ship will not be ready for service until she has been accepted from the contractors.
