There is some discussion about it here:

http://www.pprune.org/spectators-bal...over-kent.html

They fly in and out of BHX also. The general consensus is it's car parts. I'm not sure if the BHX/EMA flights are related but the BHX ones almost always go down towards Spain.

There is also some discussion here. Not sure if I'm meant to link to another forum but...

EDIT: Not sure if it's quite the same since most of those are CAVOK flights, and UKL4014 is an Alliance flight. Alliance have been known to do a lot of AID work for the UN etc.

It appears we're not the only ones interested in these birds

I seem to remember an article in one of the rags about them also. Can't find it now.
