Oh dear IMC thought police again!
Since there are no NON heirarchical groups in the area*, and for the forseeable future there
isn't likely to be, this is all there is to oppose the expansion plans of Lydd Airport.( The
owner, a Saudi, made his money partly thru arms trading.)
*(Only other 'alternate' groups in Kent that i'm aware of being the SWP/Stopwar lot in Canterbury. Some Respect and CND people and some hunt sabs (also Canterbury way).
Would you rather there were no opposition to the plans?

The safety, environmental and noise performance of aircraft has never been better, and it will continue to improve. Maybe the nimbies opposing this would like to explain how they propose to provide the increased runway and airspace capacity which the South East so badly needs.

Enough already

Since manston is already in situ there is no further need for more airports, BUT if
EUJet can't compete then neither would Lydd.
Also airtravel must be curtailed because of Climate Change, the effects of which can be seen in central Europe right now.

Should air travel be reserved for the rich?

If there were no demand for the runway space the expansion of Lydd Airport will create then no one would be willing to fund it. Looking at landing charges for all types of aircraft in South East England clearly demonstrates that the demand is there. Landing charges are a significant part of the cost of running an aircraft, particularly for the low cost carriers.
Low cost aviation is a social inclusion issue as well as a transport issue.
