Seems like good news for BHD.
As to the debate regarding the ability of an airbus getting into the city, I would imagine it is something that has been carefully considered by BMI. There definitely is not the same margin for error at BHD
Jacksman, that is not entirely true - Bombardier purchased Short Brothers plc from the British government in the late 80's, with the airport being part of Shorts. Shorts is now a division of Bombardier Aerospace.
Captain Ireland - the flying club is a good idea and probably would be operationally feasible considering the UAS operated from there until it closed in the mid 90's (not sure exactly but I started UUJ in 1995 and was told that there would be no further intakes to the squadron).
Good Luck!
