I really don't think this is a plane or a stunt. Reason being, Khimki is a large industrial city and home to several aerospace centers - not exactly the type of area that would permit small plane stunt flying.

From Wiki's Kihmki file:

After World War II, Khimki became home to several Soviet aerospace defense development centers, which became the principal employers for the majority of the city population. This included R&D enterprises which designed surface-to-air missiles for S-75, S-125, S-200, S-300 Soviet air defense systems, engines for intercontinental ballistic missiles and satellite launch vehicles, and other types of equipment. For this reason, Khimki was off limits for all foreigners visiting the country, despite its location on a highway between Moscow and its major international airport.


In recent years, the population of the city of Khimki has continued to grow rapidly due to massive residential building construction driven by its proximity to the Moscow megapolis which is densely populated and needs new areas for expansion.

The city enjoys a great deal of commercial activity due to its location between Moscow and one of its main airports, Sheremetyevo. Some aerospace development centers located in Khimki currently contribute to a program of the International Space Station.


It's those aerospace development centers that are more likely the cause of the spiral. An engine attached to a test rig and pointed skyward could possibly account for the spiral - and like one of the Russian commentators said, this was a particularly cold day and ice crystals may have formed allowing the exhaust gases to become visible, when they would normally not.

Other 'spirals':

2010 spiral over Eastern Australia:
UFO spotted over eastern Australia
(abc.net.au)
Oh, those Falcon UFOs!
(discovermagazine.com)



This was claimed to have been caused by the Space X Falcon 9 Space plane on it's pass over Australia.



2009 Norway spiral;
already covered earlier



2009 China spiral;





Claimed to have been a missile/rocket test.



2006 Tomsk, Russia Spiral



The Tomsk spiral was alleged a missile test; it also resemble this next spiral;



2009 ‘Kapustin Yar’ missile range spiral
Another Russian rocket spiral lights up the sky
(discovermagazine.com)



My guess is the Russian aerospace industry gets the credit (or blame) for this latest spiral.

What ever it is, it looks like a sign that the human race is screwed.

Science has been messing around with things for a hundred years. I suppose they have to reenact things from the past to try to investigate what was happening. A rapidly pulsing beam at a certain frequency and moving shape could possibly do that spiral shape. Sound changes and pulses can form clouds.

In the second photo of the OP you can see the trail that would have been left behind by perhaps a small plane. the straight line in the sky - see these often here, I live by an airport. Cool photos though.

Seems to me that if the missile had 2 engines and was ballistic, it would leave that type of trail. I would say plausible.
