Original Note:
The formation of condensation trails depends on many parameters, including temperature and pressure (both depend on altitude) and the amount of soot particles in the exhaust (upon which water vapor condenses). Higher altitude increases likelihood of condensation trails. https://www.britannica.com/science/vapor-trail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrail https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/atoms/files/contrails_k-12.pdf
