Many thanks for your observation but there was no a/c in front...in fact the Turmenistan 757 made a u turn back on itself to line up for the 33 approach.....it also does not account for the frequemcy that it was on.....the sequence at BHX is 118.05 Radar...then 131.0 for the Director if needed...then 118.3 for the tower and 121.8 Ground - the only one that was being used by the ATC Controller was 131.0 until the a/craft landed - If you can recall there was an incident no so long back near to the HON beacon when an a/c from the same part of the world had set a wrong QNH
Couple with my SBS observation there was also a friend monitoring the 131,0 freq and heard 'heavy breathing' coming from the cockpit due to the mic being left open..............MAKES YOU THINK EH ????????
