HC Deb 19 July 1950 vol 477 cc2237-8
10. Mrs. Hill

asked the Secretary of State for Air what repair organisation there is to deal with grounded aircraft such as the Vampire so that they can be returned to useful service and so keep up the fighter strength.

Mr. A. Henderson

Royal Air Force servicing organisation backed by repair facilities provided by the aircraft industry is immediately available to remedy any defects that arise in any type of R.A.F. aircraft. I want to make it clear that the R.A.F. Vampires have not been grounded.
