... flew on a heading of around 315 for a short while, then turned right onto a heading of about 350 for about an hour, and only then turned left to pick up a great circle route direct to LHR.
I wonder if, in return, Chinese travellers ever ask why their flights to London Heathrow go round in circles 4 times or more when approaching the destination .........
