Happened to look onto the ramp at EGGW this morning around 9'ish and saw a UK reg Citation X being refuelled.

The reg ended in X and there are only 3 750's on G-INFO so could have been G-CDCX

Apparantly aircraft arrived from Luton so if it is G-CDCX then that aircraft is infact Luton based. Maybe coming in for Maintenance to Kinch Aviation.

Jet comes off runway at Doncaster's Robin Hood Airport

An investigation has started after an executive jet with two people on board came off the runway after landing at Doncaster's Robin Hood Airport.
The incident, involving a Citation 10 aircraft arriving from London Luton Airport, happened at about 1030 GMT. No-one was injured.
An airport spokesman said there appeared to have been a problem with the jet's right undercarriage.
The airport has been closed while inquiries are carried out.
The spokesman said emergency services attended the scene, but were stood down a short time later.
Passengers due to travel from the airport are advised to contact their airline for flight information.

AAIB report of earlier incident:

Report name: Cessna 750 Citation X, G-CDCX
Registration: G-CDCX
Type: Cessna 750 Citation X
Location: Luton Airport, Bedfordshire
Date of occurrence: 20 September 2006
Category: Public transport - Fixed Wing
Summary: As the aircraft reached its cruising altitude, the fluid contents of Hydraulic System A were lost. The crew recalculated the distance required for a landing with this failure, and decided to continue to their planned destination, Luton Airport. As the aircraft slowed down after touchdown, nose wheel steering became ineffective and the aircraft drifted to the left of the runway. The aircraft came to a halt with its nose wheel in the grass at the edge of the paved surface. The aircraft was undamaged. Two defects were identified in the hydraulic system, one of which, a pressure hose failure, most likely was damaged on a previous flight.

Looks like some panting on the upper surface of the right hand wing :sad:

Flaps on inboard section are not like the the opposite and the u/c stay is visible under the wing suggesting the leg is vertical.
