Description
Contrails - NOT chemtrails!!!
Contrails are clouds formed when water vapor condenses and freezes around small particles (aerosols) that exist in aircraft exhaust. Some of that water vapor comes from the air around the plane; and, some is added by the exhaust of the aircraft.
The exhaust of an aircraft contains both gas (vapor) and solid particles. Both of these are important in the formation of contrails. Some elements of the exhaust gasses are not involved in contrail formation but do constitute air pollution. Emissions include carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons such as methane, sulfates (SOx), and soot and metal particles.

Great explanation in your description, Greg. I knew they were due to planes but not exactly why. Thanks so much and cool shot too.
Greg Reed replied:
I am glad you found it informative Susan. As a retired airline pilot I am both amused and deeply alarmed that people would believe the idea that pilots - let alone mechanics, aircraft service, rampers and assorted inspectors as well as management, who do not waste any energy that might impede their ON TIME PREFORMANCE, would let this type of thing just slide by without having mentioned it to anyone!!! Yet I do realize that some people will believe what they want to for their own agendas!! :)
