Have only seen 1 like yours, really top stuff.. I also thought mine was an aeroplane. I thought it was a jet doing an after burn dump. Was it travelling parallel to the horizon or coming in at a sharp angle?

Add the time and date, to your original post and you have a logged searchable record, which may assist others googling for it too.
ta Mitchell, I've added the date and time. I'm glad I'm not the only one that's thought a fireball was a plane! It was travelling parallell to the ground, coming from the south and burning across the eastern horizon. That's why it looked so amazing, I've never seen on this big, low or going horizontal

Thanks on the meteor meterorite tip too Ron, after I posted it I was thinking hmm, now I know theres a difference but for the life of me I can't remember what it is

Kind regards
