Three light twins down low over Doncaster

Anyone know why there were three (Aero Commanders or maybe MU-2?) twins flying fairly low over Doncaster, Victoria, Australia area about 5:20 PM this evening? They were flying east at about 2,000 feet just below the cloud and turned right down Springvale Road. Not in formation, just a couple of nm apart I'd guess.

Just wondered.

Possibly something to do with the funeral for Steve Nott today. Check the "Light twin down..." thread for details.
