Mrs H Dean [redacted] I have lived on the Nethercourt Estate for over 30 years and my house is in direct line with the runway and in the past planes came so low they caused doors and windows to vibrate very noisily, which would wake us at night. I do not want Manston to become a Cargo Hub airport for the following key reasons: 1 - the unbearable noise of number of flights 46 - 227 EACH DAY and throughout the night 2 - air pollution - I am [redacted] - in the past when it was an airport it made my breathing difficult and there were far less flights then. 3 - there is not a suitable road infrastructure 4- value of houses will plummet and so we will be stuck in an unbearable environment 5 - childrens schooling will be affected. The unacceptable change in the quality of life for myself and family is VERY concerning.
