"I have to say that I fully agree with the sentiment with the exception that I think that it sould happen as soon as possible. This uncontrolled development of CVT threatens a meaningful air transport strategy in the Midlands."

What do you mean "uncontrolled", the airport will have a pax limit of 2 MPPA. Which for 130 seat a/c equates to an average of 2 or 3 flights per hour - how can that threaten air transport strategy?

Why doesn't CVT have the right to develop to these levels? BHX are just trying to use the airspace excuse as a way of restricting CVT on purely economic terms.
