I am in support of the return of an airport at Manston because: This will provide employment in an area that desperately needs more jobs for people and increase the prosperity in an area which has become quite rundown. It will provide a place for transporter planes to land and relieve the pressure on Gatwick and Heathrow. Having a runway at Manston could be critical if a plane needed to do an emergency landing. I want to fly to Europe from Manston.

I don't want houses on the Manston site. We need to provide jobs and infrastructure for people before more housing.
