No I just mean the business model was buit to support MAN and BHX bases by feeding European bound traffic from Scotland where possible. They had a fleet of 99 seat BAC-111s based at both airports that were reliant on Scottish feed, as well as supporting the IGS (Internal German Services) routes. BA flew from Berlin to West Germany and rotated airframes through MAN and BHX. It was a high cost model that broke the day easyJet was launched. From that date BA was reliant on it's Scottish business over LHR and was reduced in the eyes of many to "London Airways", which is accurate but unfair IMHO as they were never ever going any other way from that cost base.
