Manston Airport
Representation by Angela Sutton

- Members of the public/businesses
I would like to see Manston reinstated as an airport for the following reasons:
- To bring prosperity to an extremely deprived area
- To provide numerous jobs that are above the living wage
- To educate the next generation in aviation subjects
- To utilise a huge runway to alleviate the pressure on Heathrow and Gatwick
- To free up airspace that is becoming a scarce resource around the London area
- To offer (at a later date) passenger services
- To possibly alleviate the need for another runway at Heathrow or Gatwick for many years to come
