Oops. Forgot. Apparently HowardR doesn't fly much.

I fly out of our major airport from time to time, and have enjoyed watching the chemtrail mystery from the air, as well. First, your plane does not get clearance to go even as high as 5,000 feet until you are at least 40 miles out. At that distance, and for the next 50 miles or so, the chemtrails are beginning to thin out, because they are concentrated on population centers (you won't see any, for instance, when flying over the Rockies).

Any way, if you are interested in chemtrails, then you are the only person looking UP during this time because they are still above you. Eventually, your pilot will get clearance to ascend to a decent altitude, although this may be no more than 20,000 feet if your next destination isn't too far away, say in the next state.

The interesting thing is that as you ascend past 10,000 feet, just where you think the chemtrails would be most visible, and you've got your camera out and ready... the spray patterns all narrow down to a single line across the sky because you are looking at them edge on. Even if they extend for the next 40 miles, all you see is what appears to be a single line of something with a smoggy greyish color. Believe me, it's not even worth snapping a picture.

You will pass through 10,000 rather quickly but you, watching them, will begin to see the chemtrails from slightly above. Since you know what they are, you would recognize them right away. But from above they have a tendency to blend in with smog below them and are actually a little harder to see. Stranger still, pilots usually miss this view, because the plane is nose-up at this point and they are looking upward, into the airspace they are ascending to. On short hops, however, where they level off at say, 14000, they have good views of fresh chemtrails, which look like a fat rope hanging in the air just below them. Some day these guys are going to share some great photos, but I don't think it will be until after this is all over. Most of them know that their companies don't want anyone rocking the boat.. er.. airplane.

Hi Raphael!

No, real contrails behave quite differently, except in very rare weather conditions. Logic would also suggest that if the chemtrail program was good for us, Uncle would be bragging about it. Lord knows they have little enough to brag about as it is.

At the time chemtrails began, there was a major, and I mean MAJOR effort to whip up earth changes, end-times, planet-X, and other terrifying scenarios on the web and on late night radio. This actually persuaded many people that chemtrails and other major government programs begun at the same time were beneficial, something being done for "our own good". This has started again, and I expect it signals either the end of the program or a significant change. This is just intuition, if you will, but from someone with a lot of experience.

To evaluate the potential of this program, ie. what does it mean, you must first determine whether you believe that the people who really run things are capable of good - or great evil. I say this as a caution, because it is difficult for us to escape the basic premise we hold, regardless of how logical we believe we are being.

I only point out that we examined every possibililty we could think of at the time, both positive and negative, no matter how wierd, and none of the positive ones seemed to hold up very well. Of the negative ones, the best argument used Occam's Razor to keep it as simple as possible.

Essentially, it said that if the powers that be were going to fill the atmosphere with petrochemicals and pesticides known to cause lung damage, then a lung-damaged population had to be the object of the exercise. The only reason anyone could think of for doing such a thing was, at some later time, to expose that population to an airborn disease that they wanted everyone to catch or, if everyone was likely to catch it any way, a disease that would have a higher death rate if the lungs were already demaged and immune systems were compromised. Then all we could do was wait to see what happened. It's been a long wait.

I also know that someone has finally been able to answer the few questions that left us baffled at the time: 1) What ties together the countries being sprayed as opposed to those who are not? ...and 2) What would be the financial reward that could justify spending 10 billion dollars or more to eventually kill millions of people. This information is going into a book, I'm told, and will probably be out in some form before Fall. I only mention it because I hate unsolved mysteries and look forward to learning something more. You can take it with a grain of salt - as you wish.

Stider: Our tankers actually dipped below 10,000 at times, but generally stayed right at the bottom of the 10,000 - 30,000 ft box that air controllers say they reserve "for national security purposes".


I'm a private pilot. I've flown at 10,000 feet. I've never been told by any air controllers to stay out of or watch for any area reserved "for national security purposes." Can you please cite a source for that or did you just make it up?

First, your plane does not get clearance to go even as high as 5,000 feet until you are at least 40 miles out. At that distance, and for the next 50 miles or so, the chemtrails are beginning to thin out, because they are concentrated on population centers (you won't see any, for instance, when flying over the Rockies).


Bzzzz, wrong again. Take a look at any aeronautical chart and you can see the airspace that a given airport controls at a given distance. For example, Denver International Airport is at 5431 feet. At 20 nautical miles all aircraft controlled by DIA are at between 8000 and 12000 feet (2500 minimum above ground level). At 30 nautical miles all aircraft controlled by DIA are at betweem 10000 and 12000 feet (5000-7000 feet AGL). The idea is to get aircraft as high as possible before it leaves airspace of the airport in question. Your allegation that you "don't even get clearance to go even as high as 5000 feet until 40 miles out" is BS and I assume you made it up. You must be at at least 5000 feet at 40 miles out or you'll be busting airspace and possibly running into VFR traffic (Cessnas and stuff like that that aren't in contact with departure control).

Eventually, your pilot will get clearance to ascend to a decent altitude, although this may be no more than 20,000 feet if your next destination isn't too far away, say in the next state.


Duh. There's no reason to burn extra fuel to get to a higher altitude if you're going to be coming right back down.

BillyBob: at a peace protest in 30C below weather(the beginning of the iraq war), i saw a low flying jet(let's say, between 5,000 and 10,000 ft.) , yes, SPRAY a trail of suspicious contrails. the jet flew directly over the parade of protesters.


Ignoring the difficuly of estimating altitude, you say it was -30C on the ground? Then at 5000ft it was about -40C and at 10,000 feet it was about -50C. Those temperatures are perfectly adequate for contrail formation, especially if there was much humidity in the atmosphere. Nothing suspicious there.

there is nothing more suspicious about chemtrails than the pit bull grip of the naysayers crowd. if you don't 'believe' in them, why have you wasted so much of your precious time on earth to convince people they don't exist?


I have never understood why some people think it is strange that people such as myself would spend time debating something we don't believe in. There is nothing surprising about it. If it weren't for people arguing against points of view they don't agree with then the world would be flooded with unproven theories and bad science that would be completely unchallenged. Arguing against theories that one doesn't believe in is part of how science works and, in the case of topics such as this that aren't based on science to start with, the exercise of debating the issue is still entertaining.

That people take time to argue againts points of view they disagree with is only strange to the chemtrail believer. Pick any message board on virtually any controversial topic (science, religion, politics, etc.) and you'll find people arguing both sides of a topic. That we take issue with the chemtrail nonsense is no more surprising than that there are atheists who enjoy debating Christians, Christians that enjoy debating atheists, Republicans that enjoy debating Democrats, etc. It's completely normal, especially on the Internet.

But chemtrail believers do have a reputation of not being able to realize what is normal in this world...

the plane over the protest was low, because it looked big in the sky. i have no method of altitude guessing other than this. if i hold my hand six inches over my head, then the plane was about an inch and a half across between my thumb and index finger. the plane was plain white. it looked like a jumbo jet or a tanker from the bottom(wide body).


Out of curiosity, in what city was the protest, and where in the city? Also, regardless of altitude -30C is sufficient for contrail formation depending on meteorological conditions. So even if it was just 100 feet above you the fact that you saw contrails is not necessarily surprising.

i dunno if this was posted here before or not, but anways it has links to some interesting info on chemtrails:

www.workingtv.com...

here is a link to a house of representative bill that references chem trails. it was later amended to remove the reference:
