HC Deb 19 June 1975 vol 893 c521W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what proportion of low-flying training flights in the United Kingdom were made by other NATO aircraft, apart from the RAF, during 1974.

Mr. John

NATO aircraft other than British military aircraft accounted for 8.8 per cent. of all low level training flights undertaken in the United Kingdom during 1974. If aircraft of the United States Air Force operating from British bases are excluded the percentage reduces to 0.3 per cent.
