we live in Mauta so right in the approach which is both nice and very annoying..

Ahhh, so that's what it was! We were on the Strand, 5.30 - 6.30 and it was carrying out circuits - on one pass had its landing gear down. We couldn't make out the livery from our position, I managed to get this picture - unfortunately each time it came by I was busy talking and had to scramble to get the camera on and zoomed.... anyhow excuse the quality

Us old timers know a CLASSIC B731 or B732 when we see it................
And a B733 in Toll livery definately DOESNT fit the description,..... eh Ian......
