The plan to develop Manston Airport as a cargo airport will cause the following problems:

  1. Whilst daytime noise is an inconvenience, I am totally opposed to the disturbance from night flights.
  2. The flight path entering Manston is very low and directly over a densely populated residential area, which will have huge negative impact, especially at night.
  3. Continual promises of jobs and wider economic benefit are never realised, and do not mitigate against the significant downside.

Perennial fail.
