Not something you see in PER everyday. Contrails. VA flight passing over to BQB

View attachment 505726

Contrails over PER are quite unusual, so they do attract attention. Especially today when it was so calm on the deck, and clearly also at altitude, as the trails lingered for a long time.

There were two late this morning that came in from the NNW on the same track about an hour apart.

But, about over PER, they both peeled off strongly to the SE, not SW, so not looking like BQB was their destination. I could see neither on FR24 or FA - but being at the beach without my specs, I may have missed them. However, doing a FR24 playback just now, I see nothing resembling those flight paths overflying PER.

Your pic looks very like what I saw. What direction are you facing for your pic?

Image is from Galup looking north-east. I check FR24 to confirm the flight was to BQB as a FIFO flight.

Saw similar contrails on Saturday morning.
 
Only 1 photo, coz I don't want to get into trouble again.... :(

Novotel, Denpasar airport, small plane in distance is a Aero Dili plane.

We are going to Lombok on a new airline and new plane. TransNusa and a Comcac ARJ21-700.

I have to investigate further next time. C'est La Vie. :)
