Taking Flybe out of the BOH August 2015 figure, you see 79707 pax last year.
The total of 83598 this year, indicates around 5% underlying growth, which is almost entirely RYR.
This equates to 125 pax/day, broadly equal to one Daily Flybe rotation.
More work to do, but I expect to see the airport back in overall growth in 2017.
