HC Deb 30 July 1975 vol 896 c543W
Mr. Trotter

asked the Secretary of State for Trade whether he is satisfied that the structural regulations to allow the cabin floor of aircraft to withstand rapid decompression are adequate.

Mr. Clinton Davis

The airworthiness of United Kingdom registered civil aircraft is a matter for the Civil Aviation Authority, which has informed me that it has decided to apply the requirements of the recent Federal Aviation Administration Airworthiness Directive about cabin floors to wide-bodied aircraft of American manufacture and design on the United Kingdom register.
