§ 29. Mr. EVERARDasked the Under-Secretary of State for Air whether Air Force stations will be open to the public on Empire Air Day, Saturday, 25th May; and whether the Air Force will assist by demonstration flights
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for AIR (Sir Philip Sassoon)I am glad to be able to say that the general interest shown in the Air Day held last year amply justifies my Noble Friend in making similar arrangements to throw open Royal Air Force stations to the public on 25th May this year. The details have not yet been finally settled, particularly as regards the flying to be carried out, but my hon. Friend may be assured that our intention is to enable as many visitors as possible to see the Royal Air Force at its daily work and to witness whatever flying can be included within the normal programme of training.
