Manston Airport is the only sensible alternative for both the Local economy/Employment opportunities.
Manston Airport is a necessity for the National Economy to help with the other major airports in the South East of England, with freight and associated businesses.
The Airport land has already been designated for usage as Aviation use only, in all earlier council planning.
The Strategic importance of keeping Manston Airport as an Airport, for the wealth of this country to prosper with other Airports is paramount with us leaving the European Union, next March. We shall need every Airfield, Port.
No one can doubt that there is a great need for this to re-open.
The airport, will support new businesses that will are are coming to the surrounding area of the South East. They need freight airport to Export their goods at a reasonable cost.
It will also take the extra freight that Heathrow Airport etc cannot cope with and put on to lorries and send through the tunnel at Folkestone, to then be flown out from Ski-pol Airport in Holland.
