§ Sir Hector Monroasked the Secretary of State for Defence what plans he has to impose restrictions on RAF training flying time during 1985–86; and what assessment he has made of the implications for pilot training courses.
§ Mr. LeeIn order to help contain RAF expenditure within the funding available for 1985–86 it will be necessary to impose some restrictions on general flying acivities. While this may necessitate some adjustment to the timing and content of certain flying training courses, the essential throughput of crews to the front line will be maintained.
