sorry Deirdre, I may not have explained that well. In the other thread, based on its range and its fuel capacity, the average fuel rate for the whole plane was calculated at 24 litres per mile. Weedwhacker calculated a mile long trail so therefore that is how much fuel could be involved in making a 1 mile long trail.I will have to search, but in another thread the actual fuel "burn" rate was mentioned as 24 litres per mile, for one engine of a B-777 (IIRC).
...then each cubic foot of trail only contains 0.00019 OUNCES of aluminium.
kinda hard to follow his videos cause he sounds like he's selling the whammo cloth, but doesn't he say specifically the short trail plane, the second, is going "UNDERNEATH". No that it matters because the relative humidity could be different 4,000 feet apart (he could be looking at the wrong plane- that's some zoom he's got on that camera!) and he certainly goes out of his way to not really show the 'short trail'.The first plane is actually at a lower altitude than the second
