HC Deb 28 January 1953 vol 510 c109W
22. Mr. Shepherd

asked the Minister of Civil Aviation the number of occasions during the last few months on which he has had complaints of ice falling from aircraft; what steps are being taken to prevent such falls; and what further action is now contemplated.

Mr. Profumo

During the past five months one case has been notified. Modifications to ensure that pieces of ice shall not fall out of aircraft have been introduced to all types on the United Kingdom register, which are liable to this failing. In addition, foreign operators have been asked to take similar measures.
