Original Note:
The threshold for aerodynamic contrail formation is precise, resulting in an on/off phenomenon with even minor changes in the atmosphere. The video shows an aircraft flying through a patchy, humid sky, with contrails disappearing immediately upon encountering a drier patch. https://acp.copernicus.org/articles/13/10847/2013/ https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/weather/contrails/ https://elib.dlr.de/58314/1/i1520-0469-66-2-227.pdf
