EU-US AVIATION AGREEMENT (8656/06)
Letter from the Chairman to Jim Fitzpatrick
MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Department for Transport
Sub-Committee B was grateful to receive evidence
from DfT officials at its meeting on 10 March, 2008. The
Committee intends to pay close attention to the negotiations on
this agreement. Its main concerns remain US carrier ownership
rules, the Fly America arrangements and cabotage. The Committee
would be grateful if the Minister could keep it informed of progress
in these three areas.
The Committee would also be grateful if the
Minister could make available comparisons of landing charges for
the most common types of aircraft at Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted,
Paris and Frankfurt.
