USA: Military Bases
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department is facilitating United States aircraft at Belfast International Airport or Aldergrove Flying Station on missions supporting their military operations in Iran.
Answered by Al Carns
Aldergrove Flying Station (AFS) routinely supports Belfast International Airport by providing additional parking on its estate for visiting NATO aircraft to separate military from civilian aircraft. This is coordinated locally between AFS and Belfast International Airport staff. There is no direct relationship between AFS and visiting military forces.
