This is becoming like a set of footie fans debating their teams. IMO, realistically..
CVT will never threaten BHX whatever they choose to do.
CVT is a small provincial airport and will remain that way.
Anything the new owners do will be for the advantage of themselves and not Coventry or the people of Coventry.
A nice business and freight airport with a smattering of niche pax routes would be the best it can hope for. I wish it all the luck in achieving this.
The transport links are abysmal though and need sorting to give them more of a chance.
As for the owners influencing a major investment in their interests.....Why would this case be any different from any other back room deal in this country?
