HC Deb 30 June 1969 vol 786 c49W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Minister of Technology whether he will arrange for a Concorde aircraft to fly at the Prestwick Air Show on 29th September, 1969.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

I do not think this will be possible. At that time we expect both prototypes to be grounded while they are prepared for the later phase of the flight-test programme which is to take them up to their design cruising speed next year.
