Get rid of the 106 restriction and traffic through the airport will flourish.
I wonder how many times I've heard similar bold claims.
Throughout the years I've followed Manston's fortunes, it has always - allegedly - just been one deal, one news story, one improvement or one piece of paperwork away from flourishing.
Once upon a time, all that was needed was for the aprons to be expanded to cope with 'pent up demand'.
Then it was capacity and customer service problems at Heathrow.
Then it was the BIP.
Then it was EUjet.
Then it was the fast rail link.
Now, apparently, all that's needed is to scrap the 106 and Manston will thrive.....
What will people think of next?
