§ Mr. Wyattasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation why Comet air liners are not used in the route from New York to the West Indies.
§ Mr. BeswickThe Comet air liner is still undergoing trials and is not yet ready for service on any route.
§ Mr. WyattWill my hon. Friend bear in mind that if British jet aeroplanes are made available to American passengers there will be a great demand by Americans to travel on them, and great pressure by Americans on their own internal air lines to buy British aeroplanes, which will be a great help to the British aircraft industry?
§ Mr. BeswickI agree with what my hon. Friend says, but I think it is irrelevant to the Question which he asked.
