§ 32. Colonel DAYasked the Secretary of State for Air the number of garages built for privately-owned aeroplanes; arid what steps are being taken in this regard by his Department with a view to popularising privately-owned aeroplanes of the Moth variety?
Captain Lord STANLEY forI have been asked to reply. As regards the first part of the question, so far as I am aware the only case of the kind referred to by the hon. and gallant Member is one in which a garage has been built to take six small folding aeroplanes. As regards the second part, I am not sure what the hon. and gallant Member has in mind, but on the assumption that he is referring to facilities provided for the accommodation of privately-owned aeroplanes, the answer is that this class of aeroplane can be housed at Government civil aerodromes on payment of the usual scale of charges, which amount for the Moth type to 2s. 6d. for a night's accommodation, with ls. landing fee or£ 10s. per month.
§ Colonel DAYIs any staff kept at the first garage for repairs to these aeroplanes?
§ Colonel DAYAre they not lock-up garages?
