Landing soon, offloading oilwell eequipment and going again later today.

Not overly unusual but just a wee heads up for any spotters wanting to tick it off.

Would have expected that to go to Aberdeen?

Unable to land at Aberdeen due to runway length. ABZ handling agents are creatures of habit more used to loading and unloading airline trucks or dash8 SAS aircraft, PIK handle Cargolux 747s weekly and are far more experienced.

All in PIK is the best option rather than the Oil and Gas capital. Crazy really......

Ah ok.... I did wonder after I posted if it might be something like that.
