The big blue bus bound for belfast?

When i was walking to work this morning I seen bmi heading twards BHD (quite low might I add) from the SE of the city looked like it was joining base for approach to 04. Then it turned away and started climbing and headed over the north of the city going east which is twards aldergrove if I am not mistaken. Shortly after it turned away I seen Jersey coming in on finals to 04. Weard never seen that before. Anyone know what was going on this morning.

Happy Flying

Just to say that I live in the Bloomfield area of Belfast and can see the planes coming in on the flightpath for 04 - saw that one myself - it looked like it was heading straight for my house until it got aligned with the glidepath, and have to say it was certainly VERY unusual - had to have been an unexpected switch of runways at the last minute or something or possibly a GA??
