    There is an airport in Dublin, but those aircraft could not possibly be operating to/from Dublin- they would not gain so much altitude in such a short space of time.

    Geez, you'd swear there was a VOR up the road or something.

    Because of the contrails? You generally only get those at 30,000 feet plus...

    Its blatantly obvious they are from overflying aircraft.

    ah okay so they could be either planes flying to england or from england.

    You see this over most airports as international flights use the VOR to navigate between way points. It's nothing more than a roundabout in the sky.

    that's just what they want you to think

    How do you know? How do I know you're not a spy sent here by terrorists to convince me that VORs are evil and should be destroyed and therefore doom all commercial aviation?

    I haven't been sent anywhere, I'm just someone who can think for themselves and wont be led by others

    They told me you'd say that.

    Do you keep sketch on that exact piece of sky every day or something?

    It's definitely some kind of navigational waypoint that all those planes route through.

    weather is also a factor and as someone said do you chart the skys daily


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 10,516 Mod ✭✭✭✭5uspect


    I saw it quite regularly when I lived close to Shannon.
    Heck, a google image search of VOR contrails shows lots of examples.

    well it's just this is the first time I've seen this 'roundabout' reported, let alone with my own eyes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 771 ✭✭✭seanmacc


    I've been seeing a lot of this in the sky around Dublin the past few days. Is it the time of year or the weather that's making these contrails more obvious in the sky or making them last longer? I do live close enough to the airport but I've been seeing a moxy load of contrails the past few days in the sky overhead. I have been living here the passed 15 years and I've never seen it as bad before.

    I find it strange how they seem to thicken, spread and persist for so long. I took these photos of these same trails in the OP, over the course of a half hour

    People need to watch this. It's not theory. It's fact.
