Original Note:
The white "whispy haze" is a thin cloud layer. Identify the cloud type here. https://www.weather.gov/media/lmk/soo/cloudchart.pdf The "white lines" are known as contrails (some times vapor trails). They are a consequence of how aircraft moves through specific air. See the explanations, math and science in the below. https://journals.ametsoc.org/configurable/content/journals$002fatsc$002f66$002f2$002f2008jas2767.1.xml https://www.britannica.com/science/vapor-trail https://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/wxwise/contrail.html
