eastern, if you're just trying to get a rise out of someone, ok, you got one. If, however your comments are genuine can I point you towards the bmi timetable, p 31 which gives the first departure ex BHD as 0645?
The runway is plenty long enough. The terminal is a doddle. The cab ride to the city is only 10 minutes. Approaches from the west are at least aligned with the runway and don't have a confusing dissused airfield on short finals. The passengers prefer it - just look at the loads etc,etc............
