Hi ...Just joined here yesterday pm and I noticed this flight and a few others circling just offshore. The BBC news covered the arrival at EGLL and sure enough, one of the passengers mentioned circling off the IoM. The contrails are back as I look out (Exeter) so things are pretty much back to normal I reckon.
