Please collect the issues, and i will fix it.

I checked the ICAO codes here, i didn't find Manston, but i find EGMH (MSE) – Kent International Airport – Canterbury, England. I thought this Canterbury is the "Clod Canterbury" Airport
Just to be clear, Kent International Airport is Manston. They probably describe themselves as Canterbury for PR reasons. It is the nearest city and it is easier to convince people to fly into a major tourist attraction with good links to Dover and London than to admit that Manston is a bit out of the way in a rather quiet and run down corner of Kent.

Bekesbourne was always a minor field, only used for Lysanders in WW2, and has now been ploughed under and houses built where the airfield buildings were (though a couple of buildings are still there as houses)
