HC Deb 26 July 1974 vol 877 c575W
Mr. MacFarquhar

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what percentage of RAF low-flying training is conducted over each affected county in Great Britain.

Mr. John

It is not possible without disproportionate effort to determine the percentage of RAF low-flying training conducted over every individual county, but on a broader regional basis the distribution over Great Britain is currently as follows:

Per cent.
Northern Scotland 4
Galloway and the Border counties 2
Northumberland 3
The Pennines and Cumbria 2
East Yorkshire 5
Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and north Lincolnshire 3
East Anglia 4
The Fenlands and Northamptonshire
Salisbury Plain and parts of Kent, Sussex and Dorset 43
Devon, Cornwall and Somerset
North Wales
Central and south-west Wales
Salop, Staffordshire and Cheshire 10
Gloucestershire, Hereford and Worcestershire 4
