'And it would be good to have Berlin back again, one of the earliest destinations (the first jet flights from City ?).'

The first jet service (if i recall correctly) was Zurich twice a day using a BAe 146-200 with Crossair. This was in 1992 just after the runway was extended to allow jets in for the first time. The airport you have today would not have existed if it hadn't been for that runway lengthening.
