Manston Airport is the jewel in Thanets crown, it will bring much needed highly skilled jobs to a very deprived area, with brexit we need another airport to take the freight from new markets that we will develop from around the world, and as Manston is already on a major road infrastructure and one of the longest runways in the country, it makes sense to re-open it and use it to its full protential, it's never had any real investment it's just been run on a shoe string, this new company plan to put multiply stands in and invest five hundred million, this is the catalyst we need to put this area back on the map.
