Use of Manston Airport as a cargo hub with night flights would be detrimental to the health and well-being of all residents of Ramsgate, of which I am one. Reputable research has shown the risks to health arising from aircraft noise during the night. If aeroplanes have to land and take off during the night, this should only be at airports in remote areas. Manston Airport is unsuitably sited for such flights.
