asked the Secretary of State for Air whether he will take measures to abate the nuisance caused to the citizens of Oxford by the continuous flying of aviators who, at all hours and on all days, Sunday included, circle over the central area of Oxford city, flying at law altitudes and with great noise?

The two civil aviation companies operating in the vicinity of Oxford have been requested to ensure that their aeroplanes, in passing over the city, should fly at such a height as to lessen the inconvenience caused by the noise of the machines. I hope that no further cause for complaint will arise.
