HC Deb 30 July 1958 vol 592 cc126-7W
Mr. Boardman

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he is aware of the nuisance created by noise over a wide area around Ringway Airport by aeroplanes using the airport at night; and what steps he is taking to ensure that the regulations governing low flying over urban areas are being observed.

Mr. Watkinson

A certain amount of noise is unfortunately inevitable in the neighbourhood of important aerodromes like Ringway, but there is no evidence to show that pilots in general fail to observe the regulations governing low flying over urban areas.
