14th May 12:50am MEL Northern Suburbs Plane

[Andrew M]

Bit of info here please

Woke up at 12:50 this morning to a LOUD plane screaming overhead. I live around 20kms East of MEL airport so normally by this stage planes are at a decent altitude. However this one was VERY low and I would say taking off as it was heading straight away from the airport in an Easterly direction. Low and slow would be the best description.

I am assuming a freighter as it was simply too loud to be a 777/A330 which normally flys out around this time.
