I understand what your saying about the flight path repeating the pattern & the wind nudging the lines over for the next... But couldn't the same be said about Chemtrails..? and are you trying to say that there is a special atmosphere over Dulles thats conducive for creating these Horizon to Horizon Contrail ?
But I have never seen Contrails that run horizon to horizon ...don't Contrails usually dissipate shortly following the aircraft ...?

I do work there... and i also live in close proximity to the airport. Yes this is unusual to see parallel patterns in the sky...
The Aircraft creating these patterns .... are not from washington dulles
I have seen many contrails that cross the horizon. No, they dont just have to dissipate quickly at all. Sometimes they hang around quite a while...

Sounds like you read that right from the Air Force PDF or contrailscience.com.
Either way, unless your definition of a long time is a minute or two, then you are wrong.edit on 31-1-2011 by dplum517 because: (no reason given)
