53. Sir G. Sinclair

asked the Minister of Technology what arrangements he is making for a full-scale test of Concorde's sonic boom; and when he will indicate what areas of Great Britain are likely to be affected.

Mr. Benn

Concorde's sonic boom will be measured during its flight test programme. The test routes on which Concorde will fly supersonically have not yet been decided.
