flybmi used to park up to seven aircraft at BRS - not any more. Two more aircraft stands are nearing completion to go with four others built in recent years. The airport currently has a planning application lodged with the local authority requesting the current 10 mppa limit be raised to 12 mppa, a figure they project reaching by the mid 2020s.
All that sounds as though there is life in the airport yet. In fact, the master plan consultation documents speak of up to 20 mppa by the 2040s.
