You have neglected to view The Brownsville Airport as one of the most important transportation aspects of the city of Brownsville Texas.
You need a first class airport to compete with not only Harlingen and McAllen, but the rest of Texas. The city or someone should take over and have a serious upgrade to the airport or face more business leave Brownsville for Harlingen. Freight business comes to mind.
You expect the Feds to give you money for the airport improvements. Slow and at the mercy of the feds. Wake up and smell the jet fumes. You need to have a professional airport manager and appropriate money for a new modern terminal and expand the runway to at least 10,000. Then and only then will you have cargo to make the airport viable and have more than one airline.
Talk is cheap about trying to get a second airline, but do what you did for Continental.

I agree. People are not going to "fly Brownsville" when they can go to Harlingen and fly for about the half the cost.
