Brabazon I (Trial Flights)

HC Deb 27 November 1946 vol 430 c322W

113. Wing-Commander Robinson

asked the Minister of Supply when he expects the Brabazon I to make its trial flights.

Mr. Leonard

If all goes well, it is expected that the prototype will wake its first flight in the summer of 1947, but the hon. and gallant Member will understand that the date is bound to be tentative.
