asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air, if it is the intention of his Department to reconstitute the high speed flight; and, if so, whether he intends to restrict the selection of pilots to unmarried officers and men?

It is not contemplated at present that the high speed flight will be reconstituted. High speed research is, however, being continued, and two officers (one trained and one under training) are to be appointed for this purpose to Felixtowe. The answer to the last part of the question is in the negative.
