HC Deb 12 May 1954 vol 527 cc70-1W
Dr. Bennett

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation to what extent he intends civil aviation to continue at Northolt aerodrome.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

Northolt will be closed to civil flying after 31st October, 1954. On that date all remaining air services now using Northolt will be transferred to London Airport, and thereafter Northolt will cease to be available for civil aircraft either as a regular terminal or as an alternate aerodrome. Flying from Northolt after 31st October will be under the direction of the Royal Air Force.
