In the days of Channel Airways and after them British Air Ferries there must have been the a lot of people travelling from Southend so where are they or there reletives now going to Gatwick Stansted or even London City and paying a lot to get there when there is a perfect airport on a lot of people door step.
We cannot turn the clocks back but if airline like Flybe are trying the local authorities should give as much support as possible as it effects a lot of people not onlt the traveling public but the airport workers.
