Notice the linear clouds in the examples above. These artificial clouds could only be related to jet aircraft and are not natural cloud formations.
* Operational Doppler Weather Radar CAN NOT DETECT CIRRUS CLOUDS let alone aircraft contrails. (Discussion and References).
* The radar return signal strength (Dbz levels) indicated on the left side of the images are consistent with light rainfall, yet in all of the examples the Doppler radar is operating in clear air mode, not precipitation mode. (Discussion and References)
* The set angle (4.3 deg. max) of the horizon scanning Doppler Radar is too low to detect contrails directly overhead. (Discussion)
* The upper atmosphere data that correlates to the date and time of most of the Doppler images indicate that conditions for persistent contrail formation are not present in the atmospheric profile. (Link)

I haven't been keeping up with that progress but I'm sure you're familiar with what I'm talking about.

Tall Tower. The tallest structure in the world today is the KTHI-TV transmission tower
in Fargo, North Dakota, at 629 m high [Smitherman, 2000]. However, as Smitherman [2000]
explains, the heights of this tower and current tall buildings are not limited by materials or
construction constraints, but only because there has been no need. Currently, an untapered
column made of aluminum that can just support its own weight could be built to a height of 15
km. One made of carbon/epoxy composite materials could be built to 114 km (Figure 3). If the
tower were tapered (with a larger base), had a fractal truss system, were stabilized with guy wires
(like the KTHI-TV tower), or included balloons for buoyancy, it could be built much higher.
We can imagine such a tower on the Equator with a hose to pump the gas to the
stratosphere. The weather on the Equator would present no strong wind issues, as tornadoes and
hurricanes cannot form there, but icing issues for the upper portion would need to be addressed.
If the gas were pushed up a hose, adiabatic expansion would cool it to temperatures colder than
the surrounding atmosphere, exacerbating icing problems. Because such a tower has never been
built, and many engineering issues would need to be considered, from the construction material
to the pumping needed, we cannot offer an estimate of the cost. However, only one tower would
be needed if the hoses were large enough to pump the required amount of gas.

The United States, try to keep up.

Okay, you got me! This must mean that there are secret government programs to do things that are still just small scale research, that are being taken over by private sector companies! What's next, another link to Evergreen aviation's site?

And there's a lot of evidence of those things. But not 'chemtrails'. Interesting.
Guess you haven't read wikipedia on 'chemstuff'? Or what all the other hoaxers are saying? Oh wait, this is coming from a guy who claims "China admits to dumping chemtrails" while linking to an article about cloud seeding that wasn't even hidden (no cloud seeding is hidden, anyway).

So you would say that only the trails that show up on radar are chemtrails? So if someone saw trails, then checked the weather radar, they could feel safe that they were not chemtrails?

That's not what I said. It would depend on what exactly is being dumped amongst other things. Then of course I know you always have the excuse of "chaff" to fall back on too. Don't worry, I'm keeping tabs on the sky anyway.

So you think that some chemtrails show up on radar, but some don't? I'm just trying to get a handle on what you are claiming.

Not that particles show up on radar anyways, but that fact baffles the chemmies and goes over their head
Then what does chaff do?

Sure.
Clear air mode can also be used to locate frontal boundaries and mesoscale frontal boundaries such as outflow boundaries, sea breeze fronts and drylines. A sharp moisture and/or temperature gradient in the troposphere sets up an interface of higher reflectivity (an example is to think of skipping rocks on water, the rock is reflective as it hits the boundary between the air and water). In a case where rapid refraction occurs, some of the energy will backscatter. Also, convergence occurs along frontal boundaries. Dust and insects tend to convergence along synoptic and mesoscale frontal boundaries. These increased regions of bugs and dust allow for a higher return on clear air mode thus allowing for the detection of these boundaries.

I know weedwhacker, but the US is not one of those places where it is done openly.

Claiming that cloud seeding is 'chemtrails' is an interesting definition that seems to contradict everybody claiming its every line in the sky.

Can you show me somewhere, where people are claiming that it's "every line in the sky"?
It seems like we all have our own definitions. "Chemtrails" isn't in the dictionary, you know?

Well, thats the thing, sir. None of you folks ever seem willing to clearly define WHAT they are.

To me it just means any form of dumping/spraying/injecting chemicals into the atmosphere that are not merely water vapor and traces of fuel.
