Wissa, you seem to miss the connection between having seen a live missile shot (or more likely several per year for as many years as we've lived on the Ca. coast) and the ability to identify one on video, versus never having seen a live missile shot, and the ability to identify one on video.

Perhaps you labor under the impression that while some of us who understand that the contrail explanation is a scam have seen many missile shots per year, we have never noticed airplane contrails that resemble plumes from missiles? Is it that you think we've never seen those live, as opposed to on video or (worse) in still shots?

We've seen live missile shots, and we've seen film of them. You've only seen film.

Guess whose conclusions I am going to give more credence?

What I think is that you've been fooled by a selectively edited video. High magnification of the top end of the contrail in the video tricks your mind into thinking you're seeing something towering overhead. The screenshots made from the video lead me to believe the top of the contrail was never more than a couple of degrees above the horizon at any time during the recording.
