  Brian here's a couple of pictures for yer. They're not terribly good as the plane was flying against the light.
  I presume it to be a C30 transporter but not sure..
  here she comes approaching from the west
  

  

  
  and now over the docks
  

  

  
  had to try and brighten the second pic up as it just came out as a silhouette.

  Seems to be a C130 Hercules.
