Like him or loathe him,one thing you cannot deny is that Mr Kehoe and his team including Tom Screen and William Pearson are delivering results.
It has taken a while,considering BHX was just coasting along handling 8-9 mppa.
A complete change of direction and policy and all of a sudden airlines are talking to BHX,and in many cases liking what they are seeing and hearing.
I for one applaud what he has achieved,and as the previous poster points out being sandwiched by bigger and busier airports,it will always be that bit more difficult to attract airlines.
However unlike the previous poster I believe there is enough demand for both BHX and MAN to have flights to larger and developing economies,whether it be China, India or wherever.
With China's economy showing signs of recovery,businesses and tourists alike can all benfit.
