That's a bit anti-social. Possibly A4O-MG, which has flown at BFI on 22/06, others appear still stored.
MG it is, MJ is also just about ready.
A4O-MG airborne

The upside of having a BA Engineering base on site. They were able to continue after repairs to an unspecified technical fault. The aircraft turned back initially over the Outer Hebrides after a couple of circuits of Stornoway before descending to Glasgow.

It's an Airbus base though, are they taught the Boeings as well?

AFAIK they repaired a faulty generator, could be a common A&B item ? Alternatively perhaps a Boeing qualified engineer flew in with the parts ? I did note a couple of biz jets in the air heading to GLA from Cardiff and Birmingham respectively shortly after the incident was declared. Could have nothing to do with it of course.
