Most of the equipment used at Manston Airport is to be sold at the end of July in an online auction.

Bidders will have a chance to buy various pieces of machinery including aircraft boarding steps, fire tenders and x-ray machines.

Om det er noen som er spesielt interessert så er det sikkert noen godbiter her.

Hopes have been raised that Manston Airport may reopen with a potential buyer announcing continued interest.

Talks over the future of a Kent airport have been described as "extremely disappointing" by the leader of Thanet District Council.

Iris Johnston met Ann Gloag to discuss the future of Manston Airport earlier.

Ms Gloag, who co-founded the Stagecoach Group, bought the airport in October for £1 and closed it in May, turning down three offers.
