HC Deb 12 March 1936 vol 309 cc2332-3W
Mr. W. DUCKWORTH

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air by what date the new flying boats to be operated by Imperial Airways, Limited, on Empire routes will be available for service?

Sir P. SASSOON

I understand that, of the 28 flying boats on order by Imperial Airways, the first should be available for service in the Mediterranean early in June. The remainder are expected to follow at intervals of two or three weeks.
