Infratil complaints

Some of our readers have been asking who they should complain to about Infratil, the owners of Manston airport. And some of our readers have been telling us about who they have complained to about Infratil.

As a public service, we shall be helping the first group by telling them about the second group's efforts. First up: the New Zealand High Commission in London.

The New Zealand High Commission is an overseas post of the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The focus of the High Commission's work is managing New Zealand's political, economic and trade relations with the United Kingdom and Ireland. They have now been told that "Infratil is as welcome in Thanet as a nasty rash", which probably came as a surprise to them.

More suggestions welcome.

'overstayed their welcome', comes to mind.

I was woken from a deep sleep at 2335 hrs GMT last night the 29th Oct. This is becoming a regular occurrence lately - it seems there is some night flying already taking place. Where are these areas that
residents live in that some idiots write about in our local paper that we should have to endure lost sleep
because of where we live. I say we have the same rights as residents near pubs and clubs who can get the police to stop noise and bad behaviour. Infratil have flouted the views of residents too long and should be dealt with when flying out of hours.

IT was a ACG (Air Cargo Germany) 21.4 year old jet. I doubt that it would have been allowed to do this in Germany?
