Unusual sight tonight over Glasgow, Beech E90 F-GHUV just circling over the city at 22.000ft??? Call sign is ASR272, Airframes.org show it as beaning owned by Star Equity of Luxembourg. Anyone able to shed any light on what it might be upto?

Jake3,
Pretty sure it is used as a TV broadcast relay station.
Presumably in connection with the soon to start Commonwealth Games.

Cheers tb2 for the reply, forgot the games were on but in this day of satellites and so on why do we need to employ a airborne relay station ?
