Fast moving and violently zig-zagging orange light over the Greek Island of Mykonos

Well I assure you I never thought I would be submitting something to one of these sites, but I would really appreciate any suggestions about what my friends and I saw. In the early morning of April 13th, around 4:00 AM, on the from Paradise Beach on the Greek Island of Mykonos, two of my friends and I saw a strange orange light in the sky. My friends saw it exclaiming that they saw a shooting star. I looked up quickly expecting it already to be gone but it wasnt. It moved near the speed of a shooting star across the sky, which was very large given our location, above us. Then, about halfway across the sky it did something absolutely bizarre, it began zigzagging to the left and right at sharp, but seemingly identical, angles at the same high speeds as it crossed the sky. The whole thing might have taken eight seconds, but this thing definitely made about 10 radically sharp zig and zags before it vanished. I know of planes that could have crossed a sky that size in even less time, however, I know of know plane that can or would move like this. It had an orangish-yellow glow. Any legitimate suggestions would be appreciated.
