![]() "Morgans" wrote in message news:hschf.50 .....had smoke generators carefully place on the wingtips. The trail was tight, and spun fiercely for a very long time. ( 2 or more minutes?) I was fascinated. Anyone else remember the details? Not that, but many times over the years I've crossed paths or trailed with other a/c at a cruise altitude that generated contrails. Never saw the other a/c, but could see their contrail still rotating as we passed. A wingtip vortex starts out tighter, so may well last longer. |
