747/340 in YPAD yesterday

Yesterday around 1300 I heard a plane go overhead, I raced out to have a look and caught a glimpse. 4 engines - not a 146. Does anyone know what it was? It's been a while since I've seen a -400 in YPAD.

Cheers

Hi Cap10

Was probably a 707 - callsign AUSY591. Conducting a touch and go I believe.

I have heard a number of these aircraft recently, all with foreign sounding pilots. Anyone know who is operating them/what they are doing?

Thanks Natit, that explains why I couldn't find it about an hour later when I went to take a look.
