Oral Answers to Questions — Defence – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 26 February 1985.
asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he has made any changes in the specifications for the Royal Air Force basic trainer.
No, Sir.
I certainly can confirm that.
Will my hon. Friend, in making the selection with his right hon. Friends, place a high priority on the degree to which each of the contenders approaches the specifications set by the RAF? Which one came best in the evaluation at the aeroplance and armament experimental establishment at Boscombe Down?
I can give my hon. Friend an assurance on the first part of his question, but I am not prepared to be drawn on the second.
