Imgur.com deleted this video clip of a jet starting and stopping a contrail. Why?

I use my FR homepage as a scrapbook for things I find interesting online and might want to link to someday.

I stumbled across this gif a couple of weeks ago (I do not remember where) and uploaded it to Imgur.com and posted it on my homepage.

Yesterday I went looking for it on my homepage and discovered Imgur.com had deleted it.

Contrails are one of those things we are assured are a conspiracy theory and that contrails are always present from jets.

This gif shows that they can turn off the contrails at will and that they spray in a grid. Those grid clouds are not natural. They are a result of spraying in a controlled grid pattern.

The fact that this gif was deleted tells me that somebody does not want it posted. It will be interesting to see how long the new gif lasts.

Don’t care if you are involved or not. Its occurring.

You're right, condensation is occurring.

It’s possible that you’ll see one cloud seeding flight. And the other 100,000 are just flights.

Thanks, Captain Obvious

But you just admitted that some of them could be cloud seeding operations and the one in the gif has all the "earmarks" of one, as 51 former "intelligence community" honchos said about Hunter's laptops and Russian "disinformation."

We will disagree, as the provenance of that clip seems relevant.

How do you know that Imgur.com was “threatened” by the clip? Have you contacted them about that specific clip?

Unknown.

Perhaps some sort of copyright infringement? Or the clip was found to be attempting to deliver a malicious payload? You seem especially curious as to why the clip was deleted. It seems contacting Imgur.com is in order.

The fact that Imgur.com was threatened by it enough to delete it is what interests me.

Did they tell you they were threatened by it?

Yes, some planes, somewhere in the world might be cloud seeding. So what?

and the one in the gif has all the "earmarks" of one,

More like the earmarks of a little video editing.

1. Throttled back for decent.
2. Was descending and encountered warmer air and thus condensation did not happen. Jets do not have contrails at lower altitudes due to air temperatures.

It is all about humidity of surrounding air, temperature of surrounding air, and humidity content of the exhaust and how much of the airflow is from bypass air from the turbine. The original non bypass engines like in the first 707 would produce contrails at lower altitudes and higher air temperature as there was no mixing of bypass air with the exhaust. The contrail is actually water vapor from the jet fuel. As it is burned in the turbine it turns into H20 and C02. The high content of H20 in the exhaust immediately turns in to water droplets (a cloud) when cooled by the surrounding cold air. The CO2 becomes plant food.

Your comment about a potato is just deflection away from you being either unable or unwilling to contact Imgur.com and ask why the clip was removed.

Perhaps because maybe you don’t really want an answer?

Good luck!

So that's why Imgur.com deleted it?

If they deleted all the images with "a little video editing" they'd have to delete almost all of them.

If you know how to make contact with a human being at Imgur.com please enlighten me.

They deleted it, and it is about as innocuous a video as you will find anywhere.

Re: 104 - claiming they were “threatened” by it without contacting Imgur.com is a sign of the lack of due diligence that some posters exhibit.

Claiming they were “threatened” is probably to advance a specific narrative.

Thanks.

I can’t capture a screen shot, but the drop down has nothing about “why was my image deleted?”

Trying to contact a human being on a soulless place like the Interwebs feels like an exercise in futility to me.

You can keep thinking whatever you want. I will as well.

Aircraft contrails have been around in aviation, since before World War II. Common occurrences, during World War II.

Atmospheric conditions and certain body shapes (traveling within a range of velocities) passing through a set of such atmospheric conditions, produces the contrail(s).

The contrails witnessed, usually do not indicate a purposely measured release of some liquid and/or gas - being released from a dedicated tank within the aircraft fuselage or from a pod, attached.

A contrail is not at all dependent upon such a release.

So, the notion of: “Look! They are releasing _____!” . . . is imaginary - because, without certain visual aids, the human eye is not going to see if “some liquid and/or gas” is in the contrail.

The logistics of one or more tanks/pods, are most often overlooked by observers who fear the contrails. From the ground, observers see a long, long contrail, and they assume that is caused by released liquid/gas. When, a measured release would be nothing like what the eye beholds - given that the release would be measured to blend in and be un-noticeable by people on the ground.

Again, you cannot know, if there is something being dispersed at high altitude, without certain visual aids.

I have not suggested at all, what Orwell wrote.

I did not discard at all, that there may be dispersals.

I have suggested, get better visual aid.

The brainwashing of the masses is almost complete. All that remains now is the ‘mop-up’ of those it didn’t work on. Chemtrails are real. Stupid people insist on calling them contrails. I’ve given up on the stupid ones. EOR

I was trying to think of the word chemtrails. Thanks.
