Contrail Photo Thread - 2010 Part 2
« on: August 14, 2010, 07:23:23 PM »
Thought I'd start a Part 2 as the the other thread was getting a bit long.

Lot of activity today. Photographed a few but this one caught my eye. Any ideas what it might be?

Thanks Dave. I probably saw around a dozen contrails today, one I think was a C-17 - it was in and out of cloud and my photo isn't great.

You're always catching the C-17's! Jammy!  ;D  Aparently tomorrow and Monday should provide some more clear weather.

Apparently this July was the dullest in Northern Ireland since 1927 so not too surprising that Contrails have been rare to say the very least.
 
Noticed this B.747 last week just before the Reds returned to BFS.
Don`t know the operator,but was pleased to catch the anti-collison light lit.

Took these on Sunday 23/8.
 
Most seemed to be 10-15 miles South of me,so the Sun was between me and the aircraft. :(
