The UK Airports Commission are currently calling for evidence and studying 5 inner estuary airport options on the Hoo Peninsula. These options were studied in the run up to the Airports Commission Interim Report announcement in December 2013 when they were published alongside many other documents which can be found here
The five options are
Foster Partners Thames Hub Airport 46 Foster Sift 2 FINAL
Mayor of London Inner Estuary Airport 51 Mayor of London – Isle of Grain Sift 2 FINAL
IAAG Cliffe Airport 47 IAAG Sift 2 FINAL
Thames Reach airport 48 Metrotidal – Thames Reach Airport Sift 2 FINAL
Airports Commission own airport option based on a combination of the above which has sought to minimise cost, environmental impact and avoid relocation of the existing LNG facility 67 Isle of Grain Sift 3 FINAL
