    Contrail over Captree

    Hey Gang, went to Captree State Park yesterday, and took this contrail shot.


    It looks like it's a Saudi 747-SP? Am I just dreaming here, or did I catch a rare bird?

    Unlike this bird which is far from rare. LOL!

    did anybody notice N707JT pass by NYC? he flew to JAX yesterday, was watching on passur at work.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    HOly cow, john, you've nailed the inevitable!


    A RARE bird! Nice catch! Was she headed east or west? and around what time?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Was heading Eastbound approx 1130-ish. I did not have my watch on.

    Based on this:

    It looks just about right.
