The Minister may know that I have spent months convincing British scale-up Aeralis to choose Prestwick as the location at which it will build a proposed Hawk replacement—the first British jet built in 50 years. That would create 4,000 jobs. Will she do all she can to bring Aeralis to Prestwick, and make the Red Arrows British and Scottish?

I have met representatives of Aeralis on a number of occasions, as have my senior officials. The MOD has provided the company with considerable support as it develops its concept of a modular aircraft with digital design. The Department remains engaged with Aeralis, and with the sector as a whole, to seek a solution that will generate the combat air pilots of the future. We have begun considering what aircraft will replace the Hawk fast jet trainer, which is currently in operation in the Royal Air Force.

May I also put on record my appreciation of the help that I got from David Marshall over the years? He helped me enormously, in this place as well as in my constituency. I congratulate Glasgow on its successful bid for the Commonwealth games, but will my hon. Friend the Minister also congratulate the work force and management at Spirit Aerosystems in Prestwick? This week, they have won an enormous order worth £900 million, perhaps the biggest to have come to Ayrshire for a generation. With your permission, Mr. Speaker, I should also like to thank my right hon. Friends the Secretaries of State for Scotland and for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform for all the work they have done in winning that enormous order.
