Westbounds to BEKSA UN14

Observed Saturday several ex-London westbounds coming from a north westerly vector to get back on track t'wards BEKSA/MEDOG.

The change of course evidenced by the newly formed vapour trails were quite pronounced.

Anyone know of any reason for this vectoring?

Thanks in advance.

Un14 Beksa/medog

How certain are you that the aircraft are ex London? Did you track them on ADS-B/Mode S?

If they are not ex London then they could be inbound to London from, for instance, the NA Track system via UN18.

Would be interested to hear more.

They were all in the climb westbound and appeared to be the usual AAL VS and BAW A/C that are heading westbound ex-London for the pond entry points.
