This airport has been a valuable assett to thanet ,a base for the air sea rescue helicopter,the coast guard air craft for checking the traffic in the english channel ,the airport used to be available as a diversion airport for aircraft emergencies ,the airport used to be able handle freight aircraft .With all the current plans for the UK leaving Europe ,and the need for additional runway's ,Manston back up and running makes a very sound judgement.This will bring jobs and prosperity to thanet ,which we need .
