I agree, a BHX - States scheduled service is probably now never going to happen again as it would rely primarily on UK.based traffic, there just isn't the inbound demand from Americans to fly to Brum.

Very interesting to see how MAN, EDI and BHX are playing to their long haul demographic strengths now.
Its probably a crazy idea ,but Tom Bradys involvement with Birmingham City has certainly been big news in the US according to people I know over there.
Maybe some Americans will open their atlases and look up Brum.
Probably stupid but any publicity is good publicity
