Too much shear for it to be so straight like it is.

There should be a giant cleave in it about midway up given the wind speeds up high.

All the feds have to do is say something, they've caused all this by just being silent.

I think it's a 'what's that button do' thing.

US Air would be flying one of the longer range newer 737s on that route, or maybe one of America West's 757s.

A contrail from a twin engined airliner would have some separation at its source, no?

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Like the article said, strange lights have been seen in the sky for many years.

I remember reading in one of Eric Sloane's books on early farmers and they're
implements, that in a farmer's diary he found in an old barn in Fair lawn NJ from the
1800s, he wrote of 6 bright red lights that crossed the sky at a slow speed and
then sped off at amazing speed and disappeared.

That was no contrail. Spend a day looking up at the end of the Cape you'll see thousands heading for Europe. None move that fast.

Has anyone had a look at this? Maybe that contrail off LA last month was a Chinese Missile. Might not be true but sure makes you think. Scary stuff........

Don't think so. Some very smart people have said contrail.

The experts are apparently from the movies War Games and Hunt For Red October.
