Trails in the Sky (+PiP)

Taken from the road outside my house. We're not far from Southampton airport, which is where I assume the 'planes come from.

Keith Burton replied to Günter Klaus:

Thank you so much Güni.............glad you like these two images.

We don't hear the 'planes at all, as they are much too high and we rarely see them either.......this was unusual.

Have a lovely evening my friend and I wish you a good weekend ahead. Best wishes, Keith.

A great image Keith and wonderful patterns in the pip are the high altitude ones on the North Atlantic route they pass over here going North West but very high

Terrific contrail captures Keith, drifting clouds in the sunlight!
To have that many, I would guess you are under a flight path to one of the major airports,
We are under trans Atlantic path and some mornings the sky is full of them, at the same time they worry about my little hybrid runabout ;-))))

Keith Burton replied to Roger (Grisly):

Thank you very much for dropping in and leaving such well thought out comments Roger. Glad you like this pair of photos.

We're not to far from Southampton airport.......but this was quite a rare sight for me. We see very very few 'planes or contrails normally.

I'll have to research whether we're under any flight paths. You make a good point about your little hybrid runabout. I think the same applies to the gigantic cruise vessels that have become so popular.

Bei mir sieht es fast ähnlich aus, die Wolken verschleiern die Sonne. Die Umwelt wird verschmutzt!!!!!

Aeroplane travel is one of the worst air polluting forms of transport.
