"logic" says 'chemtrails'?
Not following that.
Firstly, I looked up the images, too. Every one of them were close-ups of the airplanes involved. Contrails form some distance behind the engines, not seen in those photos.
Also, contrails don't form ALL of the time, either.
Secondly, MOST airborne re-fueling OPS occur at the lower altitudes...
For security sake, we'll just give estimates. First off, generally speaking, the refueling altitudes are fairly standardized between FL19-250, with some of the slow/low flyers needing lower. The altitude is normally chosen based on threat and traffic requirements. If higher is needed, the KC-10 is required to stay 2,000 feet below optimum cruise altitude for a given GW, not to exceed 30,000ish. Above that, the maneuvering / thrust penalties very rapidly outweigh any fuel flow / drag benefits for air refueling.

AND, if that doesn't convince, there is THIS:

Sorry...."chemtrails" are pure fantasy, a product of over-active imaginations. combined with the rise of the Internet (and the greed of certain shady people who have found a way to make a living off of the gullibility of others).
