"then it got removed"
Q: Why did it get removed?
A: Because it wasn't true.
Proof: I don't expect you to believe me. Just phone Ryanair and ask. They are a most obliging company.

ezy orange.....it could just be......that the cargo building and ICC are painted orange because that is KIA colours. Just as PIK is purple and Wellington is yellow. Background colour of KIA website gives it away a bit so do the stickers KIA gave out.

It is reported that a Boeing 757 Reg. G-BMRD was doing circuits today at MSE. It is shown as owned by DHL on the CAA website.
Anybody want to make an oak tree out of that?

DHL's 'house' colours are red and yellow, and what colour do you get when you mix red and yellow?
Orange, of course...

Manston man. You accuse me of posting misinformation. I'm happy to support what I have said. Will you do likewise? You said (in relation to the recent appointments): "There's more to come."
The number of complaints:
April-June 2006: 36
April-June 2007: 251
There were complaints from 97 separate individuals logged in the 2007 figure, not half a dozen (as euroairport misleadingly suggests).
Before I can comment on your figures I need to see the facts which TDC are kindly providing next week. It does seem strange that traffic in the 2007 quarter was significantly down compared to 2006 yet the complaints have gone up by 7X?
"There's more to come." Indeed there is

Manstons history goes back to 1916, therefore I would say, there really is no one who has a legitimate complaint against any perceived nuisance caused by this airport unless of course they are into their Nineties.
The local authorities only role to play. should be to allow the Infratil, do whatever they want in running the airport.
I realise it is very difficult for politicians to resist the urge to regulate. I think politicians should leave well alone.
Of course if politicians regulate Manston out of business, then presumably you will have a very large housing estate. I know which I prefer, the occasional whisper and that’s all it is these days. With modern jet aircraft.
A large housing estate with all the associated traffic, pollution etc.
I don’t have jets over my house, weekends are spent in the garden, if the suns out with stinking bonfires, lawn mowers making noise all around me.
And the distant drone of road traffic.
If thousands of homes were built on the Airport site I think this would grid lock most of Thanet.
And just a few people may object to MANSTON NEW TOWN.

Those engrossed in the thread's silly season will have failed to notice that MK has run a daily flight for the last two weeks.
If this continues, and the current throughput is nowhere near what the airport can handle, Manston will be the no 6 freight airport in the UK.

September Stats
Copied from Infratil announcements.
"Kent International Airport.
Kent International handled 1,797 tonnes of freight in September. This is 12.5% down on the prior year, but a significant improvement of 117% on August with MK and Egypt Air performing well. The performance picked up considerably late in the month as produce imports to the UK accelerated as the local growing season wound down."
