The last post demonstrates the alarming ignorance of the poster and et al, all he's posted is an instrument approach plate for MAnston, I could do the same for Heathrow and claim it was to promote double glazing sales in the Hounslow area, and not be challenged.
What you've really got to establish is, are there enough operators using Manston in2007 to make the company a profit? the answer is No.
In the unlikely event of Ranair coming to Manston in 2008, (10 months away), will their operation will never make a profit for the airport - the answer is NO, hats off to Ryanair if they do -another airport to exploit - but it almost certainly wont happen either way.
Face it chaps, Manston/Lubeck - bad investment, shortly to be off loaded...
