Gulfstream 5 - circling near EMA this PM

A pal of mine says he saw this - and claims it was reported at 700 ft on Plane Finder - he personally saw it what he described as low over Nottinghamshire. It seems to have been following some odd directions - anyone know anything about what it was doing?

With the problems tesco are having, they probably owe landing fees and won't allow them to land anywhere :-D

Possibly base training, or circuit checks after maintenance?

EMA is a popular airport for circuit training on larger aircraft.
