Gulfstream V over Plymouth

Hi guys. Can anybody shine any light on a Gulfstream V N888HE flying around Plymouth 29/09/11 at approx 1400hrs. It would seem that it belongs to a casino group just thought it was odd being in this part of the woods.

Regards 4es

Maybe the owner is looking at rescuing Plymouth Airport from oblivion.

Well assuming that the casino group isn't planning on a gaming den down there in ye olde smuggler's paradise , I would take an educated guess that it had a problem and before continuing across the Oggin decided to burn off some fuel, lower it's landing weight and have things checked out on terra firma and then onward bound ?
