<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>James Brown, 55, of Magdalen Road, Exeter, England, is alleged to have climbed on top of the aircraft at London City Airport on Thursday during the Extinction Rebellion protests.</p>
<p>He appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London today where a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf by his solicitor Raj Chada.</p>

<p>Mr Brown, of Magdalen Road, Exeter, wore a grey jumper to the hearing and spoke only to confirm his name, address and date of birth.</p>
<p>The alleged offence took place two days after his birthday.</p>
<p><!--Ads2--></p>
<p>District judge John Zani granted Mr Brown conditional bail, prohibiting him from going within one mile of any airport in the UK.</p>
<p>He is due to appear at Southwark Crown Court in London on November 8 for trial.</p>
<p>The athlete’s arrest and charging capped a week of demonstrations against climate inaction which saw more than 1,100 arrests across London.</p>
<p>Brown competed for Ireland, Northern Ireland and Britain in a career which saw him participate at five Paralympic Games and earn two gold medals and a bronze.</p>
