HC Deb 17 March 1931 vol 249 c1871W
Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air for particulars of what foreign Governments have placed orders in Great Britain for English aeroplanes?

Mr. MONTAGUE

I regret that there are no figures available either in the Air Ministry or in the Board of Trade which would show the value of orders placed in this country by foreign Governments for British aeroplanes. The total value, however, of aeroplanes exported from the United Kingdom to foreign countries during the last three years was £782,737; of aero engines, £922,403; and of spare parts, £961,866.
