I noticed quite a few of these flights from Talinn this week, which always go straight into Brize. Makes me wonder why this one came into Northolt first, especially looking at the fairly quick turnaround.

there's been a British military exercise in Estonia, which would explain these flights.

I guess this one was dropping pax/freight at Northolt en route.
