Not that I'm a big believer in conspiracy theories, but I like reading about them and researching their merits...I believe anything is possible, and that each theory starts from a nugget of truth in the mix...

US Navy lookouts are well trained throughout the fleet...on ships, planes, range, speed, direction, etc, etc...and yes, even the length of contrails. According to the training I received, a contrail should extend roughly a finger length behind the contact from your point of view, based on an estimated altitude of 20k to 30k feet. A normal trail will dissipate after that(the finger-length).

I gives me cause to question why, but I'm not going to be losing any sleep over it. I'm still waiting for someone to spike the water with LSD.....the theories about WTC#7 are much more entertaining...
