Typically of the MSE forum, some people seem more interested in sniping at each other rather than actually addressing the question I posed.

Euroairport predicted that MSE would become one of the UK's top cargo 24/7 airports (although he then seems to modify this somewhat in later posts by referring to "the odd night flight" - not quite the same thing).

Is there not a Section 106 agreement in force which states that six months' notice, together with noise safeguards, has to be given to the Council prior to the introduction of any movements between 2300 & 0700?

Has any such notice been given and, to repeat my original question, what is the likelihood of a positive response being received?

It's all very well saying that UK plc is 24/7, therefore the Thanet residents will just have to put up with an H24 MSE, but real life isn't as simple as that and neither should it be.
