RiverOak Strategic Partners Limited (RSP) is pleased to announce Manston Airport is launching its Stage 3 airspace consultation, as part of the next step in the process to reopen the airport as an air freight hub.
From today (15 January 2026), Bristow Group teams operating AW139 helicopters on behalf of HM Coastguard will be supported by Manston Airport for crew changes, refuelling, and other Search and Rescue (SAR) operational requirements.
It was a pleasure to welcome Navy Wings’ 1940s biplane torpedo bomber Fairey Swordfish and the 1930s Harvard training aircraft for the Operation Dynamo air display at Ramsgate last week.
Last week, Manston hosted students from the Royal Harbour Academy School in Ramsgate who are supported by the Dame Kelly Holmes Trust.
RSP is applying to the Department for Transport to align the timing of compulsory acquisitions agreed in the DCO to the planned process for reopening the airport.
