Jet contrail physics is a science. From what I can tell its been well studied and well documented. Anybody with a brain and can read and is not a pilot can discuss it intellegently.
Why is the pilots answer so troubling to many of you? I was just walking out of the jet, he was standing by the cockpit and all I asked him were a few simple questions (not once did I mention chemtrails).
1. How high are the clouds today? The bottom is around 2,000ft ant the top is around 4,000ft.
2. What was our crusing altitude today? 33,000 ft
3. What was the temperature outside at that altitude? -47 degrees. (by the way, this is normal and fits NASA and NOAA's conditions for jet contrails...30,000 plus feet and -40 or colder temp)
Then I left, collected my bags, stepped outside and looked up (something you haven't done in a while) and what did I see?
If I take the pilots response at face value what do I have? Were those jet contrails in the sky at 2,000ft? NO
Now I know some of you are going to question the truthfullness of that pilot right? How dare he discuss aviation to someone who is not in the pilots club! Or.. doesn't Denver know that the clouds jumped to 33,000ft when he walked out the door so those trails he saw were actually jet contrails? And why are you taking us pilots to task over those X's and grid patterns anyway. Do you have a BA degree in pilotology? Increased jet traffic will make those lines every time! Denver, your just smoking dope. Smoke real grass (the green grass in your back yard).
The fact is that the pilot gave me a reference point on altitude. With that, you can determine if the trail fits the definition of a jet contrail.
Guys, this doesn't take rocket science. It takes simple observations, a few reference points and simple math. Even 'non-pilots" like me can figure this one out.
