Default Melbourne/Sydney Movements

I recently visited Australia from the U.K. and spent time in Sydney and Melbourne.
I am trying to find some registrations, importantly from Sydney on the 9th April, when I was about to board my flight back to Melbourne at 12.35pm and I could see a Singapore A380, a VAustralia B777, a United 747, a Virgin A340 and a Chinese Air (B777/A330).
I have looked on 16right.com which has not helped so if anybody could help I would be very grateful.
I again apologise to Gerard M for contacting him in the wrong way. Hopefully i will get on the forum with this message.

The Virgin Atlantic A340 was G-VFIT, The first United Airlines flight for that day was N121US (in Star Alliance, although i am not sure if it was painted by then) ans the second United Airlines flight for that day was N128UA, and last the Air China rego was B-6075.

Sorry I couldnt get the Singapore or V Australia ones.

Many thanks to Tim,Matt L,Matthew Mc and Gerard M for all your help.
It has been very much appreciated.
Query over the Air China though as the plane I saw at midday did not have a colour scheme. Could it have been B-6090?

Any sites for Melbourne?

Hello again Tim and thanks again for your help.

The main registration would be for the Malaysian.
It was partly hidden by a Thai B777.
This is for Thursday 9th April and as we got back from Sydney at 1.35pm I think it would be MH148 departure.
