Sorry, but I don't understand. If the story IS true, why no credibility to Alex Jones? After all, it is an infowars story. [/b]Why? Because according to Alex Jones I am one of "them". I am a MIB. I am part of the New World Order ushering in mind control. Alex goes on and on with all of the other nut jobs about "chemtrails". Well, I'm the one up there leaving those "chemtrails".
As an Airline Transport Pilot and a former military aircraft mechanic I can assure you that there are no extra tanks, auxiliary lines, or anything secret on my aircraft. If, and that's a big IF, the government is spraying something from the skies it is pre-blended in the fuel. Anyone can go to their local airport and buy a gallon of Jet-A for independent testing. Alex has yet to test any fuel.
Contrails are the result of freezing water vapor at altitude (it is always freezing above FL290). Incomplete combustion produces CO and H2O. The length, width, depth, and duration of contrails is dependent upon the engine (turbojet or turbofan-high, med, or low bypass), the temp at altitude, the humidity at altitude, the winds aloft, etc. There is nothing sinister about contrails.
Then there is the issue of the railroad cars designed to transport people to death or internment camps. What are these railroad cars that they are always photographing? They are double and triple deck auto racks. Something that you can find at any auto manufacturing facility and transload facility. With the decline in auto manufacturing you can also find them by the thousands parked on little used branch lines across the country. Hell, you can even go to your local hobby store and buy a scale model of one in N, HO, or O scale.
Alex may actually be right on a few things. But when you spew stupid crap like this on the airwaves I don't care if you tell me the sun rises in the east. I'm not going to believe you.
