Ethiopian 757 at RAF St Athan
 
Just spotted ETH9201 757 ET-AMT make a landing at RAF St Athan in South Wales, FR24 shows it originated in Sudan, seems odd what would it be doing?
Anyone have any knowledge of what its doing? Is there some maintenance facility there now.

Thanks for the link, looks like its in for some maintenance, I see they put winglets on 757's maybe having that done?

Probably for storage pending conversion (elsewhere) to a freighter, as with the ex-Yakutia 757s that arrived at St Athan earlier this year.
