Mansion airport has the largest runway and was used by airlines for testing the larger vehicles. It is very close to the coast so very little disruption to local people. The history of Manston during WW11 is very important to the people of Kent The use for mainly cargo would surely relieve pressure on Heathrow and Gatwick. Kent is a very large area and yet everyone has to go to Surrey or Sussex to get a airport if a small part of Manston was to have travel that. Would help, before being sold KLM were operating their quite successfully. The people of East Kent badly need something to be proud of Please save Manston.
