George and list- It is interesting this is brought up; I have seen the same thing. I always thought it to be an optical illusion of some sort (like a reflection adjacent to the contrail) in the atmosphere but now George has me wondering also. Hope someone on the list has some good information covering this. Unless George and I are both goofy and seeing the same things.. Mike
