HS2 and BHX
Quite surprised this has not been debated more on here, although may be there is the thought that it will simply not happen so does not warrant discussion.
Will it hinder BHX expansion OR assist it ?
Taking it further MAG support the Manchester leg believing that London airspace will be full and hordes of passengers will head North.
IF BHX is developed and its a big "if" surely those same pax will simply go from BHX ?
To me the thinking is totally flawed and instead of exporting passengers London having 1st mover advantage in terms of frequency will simply suck in pax from both airports.
