HC Deb 02 July 1956 vol 555 cc87-8W
Mr. Lucas

asked the Secretary of State for Air what steps have been taken to assess the potentialities of the Miles 100 as a jet trainer for the Royal Air Force; whether it is ultimately proposed to introduce this aircraft into service; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Soames

Careful consideration has been given to the Miles 100, but it has been decided not to adopt it as a jet trainer for the Royal Air Force.
