I am a resident of Ramsgate, living under the flight path, less than 3 Km from the end of the runway. I have the following concerns about the proposals set out in the DCO documents.

1 That the proposals for the airport are not viable and will lead to long term blight on economy of Ramsgate.

2 That there is no national requirement for an airfreight hub; there being spare capacity at other airport in more convenient locations.

3 That, without prejudice to the above, the proposals would lead to an unacceptable impact on the environment, infrastructure and economy of Ramsgate.
