Sorry dude, the vapor trail thing was kinda weird but anyone that has ever flown out of John Wayne airport (SNA) knows that because of the local noise abatement rules, the airlines have to take off at a much steeper climb angle and this is probably responsible for the trail. The Google thing is just really out there, almost like the people that swear that they see Obama’s face on their toast. Nothing personal.
Sorry Dude but I’ve taken off out of John Wayne a few times and we did not go straight up. If a commercial airplane ascended at that angle the passengers would be pressed back agains’t their seats from the G-Force. Lets just be real about this. We live in a surreal time with a Muzzie lovin Commie in the Whitehouse and the whole world is steamed about the QE2. Its time to wake up and deal with the fact that a weakling in the Oval Office equals unwanted advances from our enemies and competitors. The Chi Coms probably launched an ICBM near LA to show their total unhappiness with Bernanke and QE2. What is Oblahblah going to do about it? Nothing. They know it. WE get to live with it for 2 more years. Welcome to Hell.
And I think people who say things like that (it’s like people who see Obama’s face on their toast) are being over the top mean. Why? Why not just say, I don’t see it? But no, you have to insinuate the person is crazy for even mentioning it. THAT is what this thread is about.
You're kidding me, I hope.

Actually, takeoff fron J Wayne involves a burst of max acceleration to reach a sustainable glide velocity, followed by a closed throttle glide over the residential area (silent) then normal flight resumes.
It couldn’t have been a contrail, because if it were, then every jet that flew through the area would have left a trail too, but there were none that day. Trails are caused by extreme cold damp air, and they affect all planes flying through the cold air mass.
