If BHX are interested in growth then why didn't they divert the money from merging 2 terminals into the runway extension? Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I've read on here and elsewhere, BHX seem to be scraping around for £12m to divert the Covt Rd. The merger of 2 terminals cost £13m for what reason? to make more staff redundant and introduce a duty frre shop at the point of exit? Even at LHR hardly anyone bothers stopping off in the terminal 3 shop. Once you have passed customs then duty and VAT are added and the goods become more expensive than Asda!!

Good marketing BHX well done. I bet Sir Bob is turning in his grave.
