Could it also be water vaporization? Above the wing, air pressure is
lower, so water "boils" at a lower temp, etc. Did that make sense? I've
seen these "trails" lots of time and enjoyed the sight as well. If I
recall, most of them ocurred when descending thru cloud layers for landing
approach. Anyone?
