You'll see it about the 3:53 mark on the video so theres no reason to veiw the whole, thing, it'll only tick you off...

BTW - Rick I can beleive the hydrocarbon stuff, but they are indicated that "we are getting sprayed" by the dum dum dum "government"...
Fuel Dump masts are in the same place for a DC-8. Take a picture and it looks like the one the Chemtrail people use as evidence.
They incorrectly state the altitudes and duration.
Here is a B-17 in WWII

F-18's landing at the ship often have aerodynamic contrails around parts of the aircraft, other aircraft also cause these aerodynamic contrails, chemtrail people in ignorance call them chemtrails.

If you ever talk to one, ask them to get windtunnel data with representative atmospheric conditions and they will be able to reproduce these aerodynamic "chemtrails" simply by aerodynamic features

Sorry, but neither the current administration, or any previous, is smart enough to be that sinister.

We should be getting rich selling these people Official Airline Pilot Endorsed Chemtrail Protective Gear. You know, the kind we wear in the cockpit to protect ourselves from all of the chemicals swirling around up there! Those things that are cleverly disguised as barf bags, YOU know!

Don't forget about the additive for algea in the fuel. We used to combine it with fuel loads in the early to mid -'90s. I just can't remember the name of it. Twenty points to the person that can. Bueller? Anyone? Bueller?

Wow... just wow.

My favorite part was the end when they showed the "cloud buster." They actually showed a 5 gallon bucket with dirt and copper piping placed on the ground, and in the sky, there were contrails "bending" around the cloud buster.

Some really cool pics of chem.. err contrails though.
