Gidday Pete ....quite an enjoyable ' pastime ' isn't it ....
About 1am every morning ( right on Que ) ..I can hear this ' heavy drone ' of turbine engines ...going slowly across the front of my house ..I.ve been out and had a look....but all you see is ' Nav Lights ' flashing ..strobes and a huge dark moving object flying away from me.
Like to know what it is....probably if I ' clocked on ' to ATC Live Chatter.net....I'd soon find out what we have here.
It's big ...that's all I know at the moment.

Flash ...!!
