By all means, believe what the Government tells you. To hell with your lying eyes.
What has the government told me? I missed that.
You mean about the contrails that form every single time an eastbound flight approaches socal under those met conditions? And how you look through magnification at the tip of an approaching contrail and it appears to be going straight up? And how the aircraft can reflect sunlight from the set sun (at ground level) and it looks like a rocket plume? And how vortexes/vortices can make the contrail look like it is spiralling?
OK, I get it now.
