Thanks all for giving me the answers.
I knew I recognised Manston but dint have a clue why, it was a long time ago.

Maybe they are trying to attract Ryanair!

Sorry Kumitz. Thanks Peter for setting me straight. I for one would love to MSE become more of a player on the airport scene… Saab knows what I think about MSE, dont you! 😀

Actually Kurmitz28 is right, some people did want to expand this airport instead of expaning LHR/GTW/STN or building a new airport at Cliffe.

No. It was in Kent but not there…it was at Cliffe.

Thanks Andy, now you said that it does ring a bell.
I dont know the area very well but was it the airport they had plans to expand but instead decided to build t5?

In the north eastern corner of Kent… about 10-15 miles from Ramsgate and about 5 mile(ish) from Margate.
