HC Deb 26 June 1963 vol 679 c150W
Mr. Kelley

asked the Secretary of State for Air what steps he intends to take to remove the cause of the complaints, sent to him by the hon. Member for Don Valley, from residents of the village of Blaxton regarding the disturbance of rest and the annoyance caused by jet aircraft flying low over their houses.

Mr. H. Fraser

I greatly regret the disturbance caused to the residents of Blaxton. The village is very near the V-bomber base at Finningley and aircraft inevitably fly low over it when using the airfield. The disturbance on the night of 11th–12th June was caused by a combination of circumstances about which I shall write to the hon. Member.
