What proof do you have that the web cam image was the same contrail in the video ? Just the time stamp ? There are contrails all day long here in So Cal when we have humidity. In fact the person who put that blog together claimed it was another flight. Flight UPS902. Not flight AWE808. So which plane was do you think was in the video ?

No, the person said it could be the MD-11F from UPS, or the US8098 flight.

BTW, its listed as AWE because that is an existing America West route, but the plane was USairways East metal. The pilots have yet to come to a contract, so the metal is East or West, and this route, while being a West (AWA) route is operated by East, its the only Hawaii service operated by East, AWA runs PHX to KOA, OGG, HNL, and LIH daily in high season and, in the case of LIH and KOA its a few times a week in low season.
