Original Note:
The plane is not spraying anything. What you see in the video is a contrail, formed when water vapor from aircraft exhaust and the air around the plane condenses and freezes forming a persistent cloud in the form a trail behind the aircraft. https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/regulations_policies/policy_guidance/envir_policy/contrails.pdf https://www.spartan.edu/news/trails-in-the-sky-all-about-contrails/
