wow. finally!
i don't come down on one side or the other of the "chemtrail" debate, i think it's ugly and i'm sure there are things we could do to eliminate the visual pollution of the persistent contrails. it also is the same to me as smog from your car; its pollution. i just HATE when some debunker comes in and talks s * i t to all the chetrailers without that simple, clear explanation. so thanks for being smart AND civil. a rare combo on these forums.

Uh no you can't reduce the 'visual pollution' of any contrail. In simple terms you are seeing water being released as a by product of combustion. All forms of combustion releases water. Check the chimnies of any house in the winter. Check the tail pipe of cars in the winter. The higher the humidity, the longer it lasts.

[why do "u-turn" contrails mean anything? aren't planes just vehicles being driven by humans? couldn't they just be turning to... turn? ...
A turn that tight with passengers would garner lawsuits....

Your lack of knowledge about aviation is showing, and it's disturbing. Because, it is at the core of the misunderstanding that continues on the topic of "chem"-trails......

:eyes rolling:
I pointed out that this person making claims of poor logic was using poor logic in the process. You have to jump in and insult, like it's an obsession.
General note: any other newcomer to the thread, I'm not going to respond no matter what because of these others who can't discuss things without belittling others. Sorry.edit on 14-5-2011 by SaberTruth because: (no reason given)

i understand what your saying, and i agree. but i started this thread with photos i took last week of contrails that change direction, and i have not seen this from my location before. and thats what i ment by "is this normal?"
i have said before that i have seen plenty of contrails but not the change of direction.
and the desription of one of the pictures you posted gives my question merit. "passenger planes rarely deviate in their course exept in a holding pattern" so are the aircraft in my pics in a holding pattern? or are they not passenger planes?
If you want to take the word of a book neither of us have read as absolute fact in every (commercial) flight ever made, that is your choice.
so are the aircraft in my pics in a holding pattern? or are they not passenger planes?
