HC Deb 08 December 1965 vol 722 c93W
Commander Courtney

asked the Minister of Aviation if he will make arrangements for the use of London Airport, Heathrow, by British air taxi services and business aircraft operators, on the lines of the facilities available at major Continental airports.

Mr. Stonehouse

Arrangements at major Continental airports vary considerably. At Heathrow arrangements must be conditioned by the amount of scheduled airline traffic there, its safety and regularity and the complexity of the traffic patterns in the London Terminal Area.

Outside the busy periods, however, Heathrow is available to properly equipped and crewed aircraft of the types described. The regulations for the use of Heathrow are set out in the U.K. Air Pilot.
