Jet liner passing the Moon.

This Virgin boeing 737 passes every night at 9.20 pm,on its way to Darwin,I was out in the observatory this evening viewing Mars through the scope,and noticed the plane looked like it might pass the moon,using a Canon 50D and 400 mm L lens hand held,I managed about 5 five frames with jet in them.The plane was at approx 20'000 feet and climbing fast.

Hope these quick images may be of interest.
