Wingtip Vortices and Smoke Create White Ribbons in the Air
A popular spectacle at Air shows is watching a modified British Hawker Sea Fury with smoke generators installed under its wingtips, which inject smoke into the wingtip vortices while performing.
Wingtip vortices are circular patterns of rotating air left behind a wing as it generates lift. One wingtip vortex trails from the tip of each wing.
Those wingtip vortices persist for many seconds after the plane has passed, spinning and twisting in the breeze, like white ribbons floating in the air.
Wingtip vortices should not be mistaken for engine contrails, which are line-shaped clouds produced by aircraft engine exhaust, typically at aircraft cruise altitudes several miles above the Earth's surface.
Thanks for watching

I want to put that on my bicycle.
That's cool, I didn't know they made a noise.
Yes! I was hoping that somebody would talk about this. I used to work at a building that was in the landing path of BWI airport and when planes would pass over at low altitude, it would get quiet and then this ripping sound would pass overhead. I never knew what it was, but it was really cool to witness.
Amazing
When landing, you’re saposta wait 2 minutes after the departure of a helicopter before entering the same airspace. Some vortices have some real staying power
Thanks.. Now my brain is less functional than before.
Now can you do one about stratospheric aerosol injections?
Hello, I love gaming because I am a professional
Contrails have been found to produce a significant warming effect because they reflect escaping radiation and can persist for long periods
Aka chemtrails😂
