HC Deb 05 June 1913 vol 53 cc1038-9
59. Major M'CALMONT

asked whether the three squadrons of the Military Wing of the Royal Flying Corps are provided with a sufficient number of serviceable aeroplanes to enable all their qualified pilots to practise flying daily, weather and other conditions being normal?

Colonel SEELY

Owing to the delays in the delivery of aeroplanes by makers, which I have already mentioned to the House, the number of machines in possession of squadrons is not yet considered adequate.
