Would be a nice video without the song...airplane videos don't need music...... THEY MAKE THEIR OWN!!!!!!

[SpeedyNeutrino43]

Geeze, what crappy music.

[bobmac84]

The music ruins it, and also gives YouTube an excuse to add annoying ads

Of course I know what cloud seeding is, but apparently you don't. It's used to encourage precipitation, which is something ski areas are very interested in during the winter. More snow equals better skiing.

And who told you that contrails disappear after a few minutes? Contrails can persists for hours, and can indeed encourage cloud formation.

You seem to lack a basic understanding of the concept of water vapor condensation, go read a book and take off the tin foil hat.

@FLfalconer Have you ever heard of cloud seeding. Contrails disappear after a few minutes,the trails i'm speaking of hover and form a overcast cloud threw out the day! They make x patterns over and over till the whole area is no longer blue.. Now this happens in Reno NV almost everyday i have been in Medford OR the past few months and the same occurs here.The ski resorts in Tahoe claim the help fund cloud seeding all of you pilots can claim this doesn't happen your either lying our blind

@illuminated775

Are you serious? Those white trails you see are called contrails. It's just water vapor. You generally only see them coming from aircraft at relatively high altitude, where atmospheric conditions are right for their formation. There is no conspiracy, just high flying jets and water vapor.

[illuminated775]

so i imagine most people watching this are pilots ..I was curious what you as pilots think about the airplanes spraying Geo engineered chem trails into are sky's? now whether u believe our not i know you have noticed the planes spraying white chem trails daily ,,there are alarming rates of aluminum and barium being found in our trees and water... again i ask what is your opinion and do any of you pilots have anymore info on were they r landing and taking well we have questions!!!!!!!!!!
