Quite often stuff that has transited through the Lichfield corridor will contact Shawbury on 282.000 for low level 'let-down', generally for LFA7 (not just the MAch Loop). Could be any type of aircraft heading that way tbh

282.0 is Shawbury Approach which also provides a Lower Airspace Radar Service (LARS). There is also a discrete frequency, 376.675, for helicopters operating at low level in LFA9.
