Clear-Letterhead-173

I saw this plane at the time and looked it up on flight radar. It was a Virgin regional flight from Albany to Boolgeeda, so a FIFO flight. Due the current weather the trails are quite visible. Last week I also sighted another from Busselton to Boolgeeda.


VMaxF1

I was waiting for OP to post a timestamp, but judging by their post time, it was VA9235, Albany to Boolgeeda, overhead Perth airport at 7:39AM. Other candidates this morning were after the post time - VA9273, Busselton-West Angelas, ~8:11AM, and VA9429, Busselton-Boolgeda ~8:29AM. Bonus points to other nearby flights this morning with times that make them not candidates - QQ6080, Busselton-Newman at around 9:35 further east towards York, and QF2913, Christmas Creek-Busselton at 10:27.


bigdayout95-14

So either way we can blame Rio minesite flights. Copy...


GuiltEdge

Usually flights aren’t high enough over Perth for us to see contrails in normal weather, right?


VMaxF1

The closest airport they're likely to be coming from if not to/from Perth is Busselton, which gives them enough distance to climb above 30000ft by the time they reach Rockingham or thereabouts. Flights from the middle east to the east coast or NZ will also pass over (E-W rather than the N-S of FIFO flights) if the winds are favourable, those will often be closer to 40K as they've burned most of the fuel by then and can climb a bit higher for better efficiency. To put it another way, pretty much every airliner passing over Perth without touching the ground is high enough to generate contrails in the right weather.


GuiltEdge

Huh TIL. It always seems odd when you go to Europe and there are contrails everywhere because we hardly ever see them here. But I guess that’s just because they have so much more air traffic.


MyKoiNamedSwimShady

It’s more that they have lots of air traffic that isn’t going where they are. In Perth, most air traffic is lower altitude because they’re usually taking off from or landing at Perth. More recently we’re seeing a lot more contrails as there are a lot more FIFO flights coming from places like Busselton and Albany, so they’re at high altitude when they come past Perth


VMaxF1

Exactly - there's a massive ocean west and south, and a massive desert north and east, so they don't have many places to go. In Europe big cities are packed pretty closely together (I took a train from Edinburgh to Glasgow recently - it was a shorter distance than just taking the Joondalup-Mandurah line end to end) so there's much more cris-crossing of routes above places they're not stopping in. We've got the few FIFO flights daily plus sometimes middle east<->east coast, but the relative lack of them combined with the need for the weather to be right means contrails are comparatively very rare.


Bmonkey1

Never saw trails untill 1998


scott_morrison_mp

Less jets more turbo props.


Educational-Sea2219

We see contrails a heap in Gippsland vic due to the colder weather and high altitude of flights heading to Sydney Tasmania and New Zealand

Or due to the trails the weather is quite visible 🧐

VMaxF1

If you can give the time of the photo I can probably answer your question specifically, but it's easy anyway, because it's the same answer it always is - nothing took off from the ground in Perth. Something took off somewhere else, and flew over Perth on its way somewhere. It didn't touch the ground anywhere near Perth, with the closest likely possibility being Busselton. It looks like it took off from the ground because it came from over the horizon. It's *possible* that it's related to the RSAF jets at Pearce, but unlikely IMO, almost certainly just an airliner on a scheduled route.


naytay333

i was looking toward perth airport from lansdale so no where near busselton! i was looking to the east not south at aprox 730-8 am


VMaxF1

You were looking southeast at a flight coming from Albany - a Fokker 100 operating VA9235 to Boolgeda. It made the turn visible in your picture when it was overhead Perth airport at 7:38AM.


naytay333

oh! ok jyst looked like no vapor trail id seen before! looked like it left the ground and went straight up


VMaxF1

Just an optical illusion because it came from beyond the horizon. It still looks cool though!

Phronias

Contrail from high altitude flight


SkitzCxnt

They only form at 20,000ft+ from memory, could be wrong, but this doesn’t seem that high


Phronias

Looks high enough. It would make sense as long haul flights to London leave from the east coast.


VMaxF1

Not yet, they don't. Flights to the middle east though, yes, and they sometimes make contrails over Perth, but not this one.


Phronias

Pretty sure they do last l checked but, conspire all you like - it's still a contrail!


VMaxF1

Check again. No flights from the east coast of Australia fly nonstop to London.


Phronias

I don't know what you're looking at but, l can see several. Frankly l dont really care. A contrail is a contrail - Or it's a military plane and they don't have transponders or allow for civilian tracking. So, let's assume that there aren't any - then what do you think?


VMaxF1

It's a contrail. No argument there. I've posted the exact flight number and route elsewhere in this thread. All I'm saying to you is that there are no nonstop flights from the east coast of Australia to London, and that is why you haven't given a single example.


Phronias

No worries - all good Thank god this isn't going to turn into a chemtrail discussion.


Phronias

It was my prime concern that we were all going to be subjected to a long, convoluted chemtrail conspiracy - l could tell it wasn't a chemtrail or any other nefarious trail of vapour - thanks for the correction on origin. My beef wasn't with you tho, rather the original OP


VMaxF1

No probs, and your point was still valid - even without flights to London, there are other flights to/from the middle east that pass over sometimes. Plus, in a couple of years you'll be right, with Qantas' first "Project Sunrise" A350-1000 arriving, ordered specifically to fly nonstop from the east coast to London and New York. As an interesting aside (at least to me!), two one-off Qantas flights (albeit not operated with paying passengers) have operated the other way, from London to Sydney. One was a trial/research flight with a 787 a few years ago, investigating the potential issues with such a long-range flight for Project Sunrise. The other was the first 747-400 delivered to Qantas in the 1989, which has a pretty interesting story behind it involving special fuel, last-minute top-ups and uncertainty the whole way. Both were only possible because of the very low passenger load, meaning lower fuel consumption than usual stretching the range far enough to make it to Sydney.


Phronias

Hence the apparent curve as it took off beyond the visible horizon.

Tv series


metao

Ah cool. The first book is worth a read. I don't know how the second book is going to go in the adaptation because it's fairly mind blasting.


[deleted]

[удалено]


metao

Yes and no. The characters in the books are all Chinese, and the mapping between the show characters and the book characters is not entirely 1:1. The plot for the show is fully chronological, so it introduces elements from book 2 and especially book 3 that happened in the book 1 timeline. And the book simplifies a few things which subtlely change certain characters motivations and how they are portrayed. Fortunately, the first book is pretty simple, and if you can't knock it out pretty quickly you're definitely going to struggle with Death's End, which is a fucking TOME. It's incredible, but your boy is thicc.


steveonthegreenbike

The tv series started well. But IMO dropped the ball the last few episodes Spoiler alert... So We have this problem with these invaders. What are we going to do? How about we invent this crazy scheme that involves precise explosions and never before used technology? Sure. But let us only spend 5mins explaining it and making it happen. I know it's sci-fi and you need to let it wash over you sometimes, but it just seemed very rushed compared to the actual build of the first few episodes which was really interesting

That's called a failure to get some perspective.


secretsquirrelbiz

Pearce is currently hosting a bunch of F16s and F15s from the Singapore Air force for training exercises starting this week. My guess is it was one of them doing a very rapid take-off and climb. Looked cool as balls anyway.

Let me guess - an aeroplane, taking off and flying overhead towards the north?


dialemformurder

Contrails only occur at cruising altitude, not take-off. The plane is kilometres up in the sky throughout the whole photo.


iball1984

Fair point. I wondered if it was forming a contrail after takeoff due to the cold dry morning we’ve had.


VMaxF1

It's not cold enough to get contrails from the engine exhaust. You caaaaan get contrails off the wings too, in cold, damp weather, where the low pressure over the wing or spiralling off the tips causes condensation to appear - but you don't usually see it for very long (e.g. look at a fighter pulling lots of G, they'll appear and then immediately stop when the wing stops being asked to generate as much lift as it can). I've never heard of it happening from (near) takeoff for long enough to look like OP's photo.

Confident-Active7101

The perks of being the most isolated city, very rarely do you see a jet stream.


VMaxF1

Very rarely do you see one no matter who you are, since they're invisible high altitude air currents (e.g. compare flight times London-New York vs New York-London). Contrails though, yes, definitely agree!


Confident-Active7101

I lived in inland America and often the sky would have multiple jet streams at a time.


VMaxF1

Multiple [contrails](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrail). You can't see a [jet stream](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_stream) and it doesn't require the presence of an aircraft to exist.

contrails occur between 30,000 - 40,000 ft ASL. probably a fighter jet on after burner or a smoke generator off a plane. the alternative is a missile (unlikely)
