§ Dr. David ClarkTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence which Army units are currently equipped with helicopters capable of operating in all-weather conditions; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. HanleyAll helicopters are limited in some respects by weather conditions. All Army air corps helicopters can operate in the majority of conditions likely to be encountered in their primary deployment areas. There are, however, limitations in their capability in cold weather and in poor visibility.
