Nope, I never suggested anything of the sort!
Guess what? Of the total freight Luton shifted last year, 80% was freight in and just 20% freight out. Stansted? 67% of the total freight was freight in.
LTN & STN make their money from SLF, the type of freight that walks on, the carry on stuff is merely the icing on the cake of an already profitable product.
Manston is viable as a freight hub.
Then why has it changed ownership, ahead of insolvency, more than once and ultimately been sold for real estate development?
Harry, I suggest you stick to reminiscing
I am, once upon a time Manston had an RAF base and then a commercial airport, oh bygone days but we can all reminisce of what could have been!
