Written question asked by Douglas Chapman (Scottish National Party) on Wednesday, 7 December 2016, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 12 December 2016. It was answered by Mike Penning (Conservative) on Wednesday, 14 December 2016 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Military Aircraft: Air Misses
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many airprox incidents there have been by (a) category and (b) location in the last 12 months.
- Answer
-
The UK Airprox Board publish all reports and analysis on their website at https://www.airproxboard.org.uk/home/. For ease of reference the attached table identifies the total number within each category and by geographic area for 2016. There are a number of reports which are unassessed as they remain under-investigation, these are included under category U.
Due to the range of UK military aviation activity that occurs overseas I have also included data on Airprox occurrences involving UK military aircraft operating outside UK Airspace, as assessed by the Military Aviation Authority.
