Contrails lost !?

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-0541 Kjell:
Tim..thanx for the tips, but if that file was corrupted....would i really see contrails from ai-planes?  When above fl270 or so, I actually see other planes contrails, but not my own   :|

EHM-0541 Kjell:
Problem solved !
Last nite i had contrails back visible again. Dunno how or why it was lost, but it doesn`t matter now.  Must have been caused by weather conditions.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
What is contrails ?!?!?! :)


Regards,

EHM-1343 Jonathan:
Contrails are the trails left behind jet liners flying at high altitudes. Caused by hot air from the engines being cooled by the cold air at that height.

And as Maarten says, they are just clouds!;)

EHM-0005 Maarten:
True, the difference in temperature between the exhaust gas and the outside air temperature (OAT) is that big that the air behind the aircraft condensates. This causes clouds behind the engines which are called 'contrails'
