Hi Callum, not 'in the know', but crew looked to be offloading flight bags from the parked a/c. So COULD be a nightstop.

Memories of my Leuchars posting elsewhere on FC - It was pouring rain whilst I balanced the camera on the bridge parapet taking long-exposure shots and trying to keep dry under a golf-brolly!
