§ 103. Air-Commodore Harveyasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation what arrangements are being made for the servicing of Constellation aircraft of B.O.A.C. in the future.
§ Mr. LindgrenThe move of British Overseas Airways Corporation's maintenance base from Dorval to Filton begins on 20th October. It is expected that the move will be complete by the end of the year. During the move, Constellations will be maintained for the most part within the United Kingdom, but for some weeks assistance in overhaul and specialised maintenance work will be given by K.L.M. for the North Atlantic 049 fleet,112W and by Q.E.A. and K.L.M. for the 749 Constellations on the Australian service. It is planned that, when permanent hangar and workshop accommodation is available, the base for all British Overseas Airways Corporation's Constellations will be at London Airport.
