The reopening of Manston Airport would be a much needed a asset providing permanent work for many. To build on it would be detrimental to the area, giving only temporary work as once the build is complete there will be no more work. Noise is an issue raised, but older, noisy planes do not fly now and pollution is high from local traffic which some locals give no thought to. Whilst it is only planned for freight at the beginning it would be great to b e able to fly out of there again.
