I saw them come over my house in North Herts, low and gear down (which is what prompted me to look on FR24).


So, idle curiosity question to the pros: Why gear down so far from LHR? I'm guessing they wanted to burn fuel off to get lighter, so went low-level and high-drag? As I said, just idle curiosity and from a position of deep ignorance...
