It will be because it routes up the east coast from OTR, as does the KLM occasionally if the traffic in the Vale of York is light. The reason most other aircraft don't fly over Guisborough will be because they come in through GASKO to the southwest of the airfield and a downwind join for 23 (even left hand) will only take them as far as Nunthorpe-way before turning in.

The ones coming over Guisborough will most likely be on a visual approach or on a tighter base leg join from the southeast.

Hope that helps
