Right....when I dared to stick my twopennyworth in earlier, I was pilloried, lambasted etc etc. I said then that I knew a thing ir three about this airport and its ops, and a bet was made....remember.... It was if the airline was around in a year from start I bought cases of the stuff....if it wasnt.....they bought ME the stuff. Own up who was it before I have to go trhrough the posts. Manston just does not have the catchment and an airport should never, never, never, never, and again, never, put their hard enarned dosh into an airline operation, especially when wishes are the collateral. Sorry guys, it's a cruel world out there and Manston is crueller than most......The end of the M2 is indisputable and Geographically in position.
