I’ve some questions regarding contrail formation that I'm hoping someone here may have some insight on.
Do you think that there are more persistent contrails these days compared to say 30 years ago? Obviously there are more aircraft in the sky, but is the ratio that leave a lasting trail any higher now? Also, do you think that the global warming trend over the same period, which has likely increased the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere, could be a factor in the persistence of contrails?
Thanks
