HC Deb 17 July 1919 vol 118 c636W
Captain W. BENN

asked the Undersecretary of Stale to the Air Ministry what steps the Controller of Civil Aviation is taking to assist commercial firms to-show machines at the forthcoming exhibition at Amsterdam?

Major-General SEELY

Assistance is being given to private firms by the release of machines and engines, where they have passed the experimental stage, and can be spared from the Royal Air Force. Negotiations have been in progress with the Dutch Government for the opening of civil communication by air between England and Holland during the period of the exhibition.
