asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if the recent night flying of aeroplanes over Dublin arises from essential services, or other work; if so, if he will see that it is reduced to a minimum; and if it is not essential if he will order night flying to be discontinued.

A recent concentration of night flying in the Dublin area was occasioned by the training of aircraft personnel by Aer Lingus Teoranta. It has been arranged that night flying training by the company will be the minimum consistent with the proper training of personnel.
