Come on,
BHX5DME... This has been discussed for years in the BHX forum. Ain't going to happen. You mention one thing already: Our railway link (West Coast) to London is too good these days (85min to Euston). And you think the M5 and M6 are excellent motorways, really, when, at 2am ? And BHX's management is not the brightest. But mostly, EZY is very big at LPL, MAN, LTN and BRS, while we at BHX can't even feed WW and BE properly with passengers. You want a BHX-BER on a A139 (!) when even BE's FRA has been stopped ? Get real... BHX's catchment area actually is much smaller than you think, people are turning their back to it.
