-I see aircrafts like that, maybe there was just a aircraft infront of him and he had to slow down? I normally see the odd 767 and it looks like its going so slow! but its porbably only going 160 knots?

-I was at work (down road from LBA) when i saw a Thomson 757 pass over very low directly over LBA at also seemed to be going slow! Just wondering if any one else saw it and could help me understand what was happening?
I wonder if it was under radar direction for a landing approach? - I was up at LBA this lunchtime, and the TOM 757 flew directly over the field, at 4,000 ft, then was given a radar heading of 330 degrees, which put him downwind for runway 14.
This type of procedural approach happens regularly at Doncaster, especially when the radar feed from Waddington is unreliable, or if the approach frequency is not being used.
