Transport Select Committee Inquiry Into Smaller Airports
Transport Select Committee Inquiry into Smaller Airports The former airport at Manston, Kent This submission is a combined submission from two local community groups - No Night Flights and Manston Pickle. We represent residents who were affected by the operation of the former airport at Manston. Our submission to this Inquiry about smaller UK airports relates wholly to the former airport at Manston. It draws on our research over a number of years into the airport’s economic and environmental impact on the local area. In many ways this is a strange submission to be making. The owner of the Manston site, Ms Ann Gloag, closed the airport on 15th May 2014 because it was losing £10,000 a day and because she saw no prospect of turning it into a commercial success. Ms Gloag has since sold a majority share to a pair of developers fresh from their recent success at the new Discovery Park at Sandwich - the former Pfizer site. They say they have ruled out using the Manston site as an airport. Our long experience of researching the facts around the airport and its impact has taught us that there is a world of difference between the rhetoric of airport operators and local politicians and the demonstrable facts. We want the Select Committee to have access to what we know about the impact of one small regional airport on the local economy and community. No Night Flights Manston Pickle Executive Summary • After 15 years in private hands, the former RAF base at Manston has not been the hoped-for engine of regeneration for Thanet. -

Long Term Proposals for Development July 2013
Long Term Proposals for Development July 2013 Long Term Proposals for the Development of Manston – Kent’s International Airport Submission to the Airports Commission 19 July, 2013 1. Introduction This document sets out in outline form, proposals for the long-term development of Manston - Kent’s International Airport. It has been drawn up as a response to the Airport’s Commission’s invitation in its Guidance Document 01: Submitting evidence and proposals to the Airports Commission (Feb 2013), which specifies that submissions should: Outline proposals and give an overview of the level of additional capacity that would be provided, along with some of the key economic, social and environmental considerations associated with it. Adopt an integrated approach to the proposals, taking into account a broad range of factors, including possible problems raised by the proposals and means of resolving or mitigating them. Facilitate the early identification of barriers to delivery of the proposed scheme by indicating whether they stem from legal (UK or EU), technical or other sources. State how the proposals would operate (e.g. the types of aircraft and the mix of short, medium and long-haul traffic they would be able to accommodate), and how they would expect the airline sector, including full-service, low cost and freight carriers and other airports in the UK and internationally, to respond when the additional capacity becomes available. Assess the impacts of the scheme being promoted under six broad categories of factors: economic; social; climate change; local environmental; accessibility and feasibility. Commission Guidance Document No.2: Long Term Options - Sift Criteria, then added ‘strategic fit’ to the above list following consultation on the original list of factors and also split feasibility into ‘cost’ and ‘deliverability’. -

Poole Flying Boats Celebration (Charity No.1123274) PFBC Archive: Our Charity is committed to developing & maintaining its Public-Access Archive… For the purpose of this website a brief selection of items together with information have been provided where references in blue indicate further material is available. Á Part Twenty: A Behind the Scenes Look at Aquila Airways 1948-58... ‘Aquila Insight’ © PFBC Poole Flying Boats Celebration acknowledges the significant contribution which Aquila Airways paid to the History of the UK’s Flying Boat services during some 10 years of its operations from 18th. May 1948, until 30th. September 1958. Through his entrepreneurial vision & passion for Flying Boats, former RAF Wing Commander - Barry T. Aikman DFC , with the dedication of his airline staff, a marvellous swansong was added to this history during that period when the last vestiges of travel by the glorious Flying Boats were being wound-up across the world, with new airports for landplanes. " The scene is not a major airport, or even a regional one like Hurn (later renamed Bournemouth International Airport), it is Berth 50 in what was known as the Old Docks, Southampton. In the 1950s Aquila Airways occupied part of a new purpose-built Marine Terminal intended for use by BOAC. It was from here that Aquila operated to a number of idyllic destinations. However, my account ( PFBC HLM Norman Hull ) goes back to 1952/3 when only the Madeira service was in operation - this was the service Aquila ‘made its name on’ and a look will be made at an arrival, and then a departure.
