according to a friend of mine, they are spraying the clouds to 'fix' the weather, so if it wasn't for them bastards spraying the clouds, it wouldn't be so cold now!
Cloud seeding has been experimented with for years.
It seems to be working.

Looking at the tail in the first shot and then at possible alternatives to Dominie in Wikipedia, it could be a Dassault Falcon 20. Now to find out whose!
[edit] Assuming it is an airforce because of the underwing payload on the orange and black one, I can't find it. Might have been a special paint job or for a film.

I once lost site of a Jaguar that went up the valley directly behind our barn. valley was about 80 ft deep. It also meant he must have gone under the electric wires that were strung from the barn to a telegraph pole the other side of the valley.

[QUOTE 2180232, member: 9609"]We get these strange things, they arrive an fly round and round in circles for many many hours at a time .The circles are colossal, may be 30 mile diameter. In the picture you can see the previous contrails that the wind has drifted away, the route of the plane never varies, same circle time after time week after week. Does anyone know exactly what it's doing?

Ooh, that's interesting. We saw similar over York yesterday - never seen it before (and I do often look at the sky and see contrails, so I'm a noticing sort of person). We assumed it was civilian airliners, and wondered why they were looping yesterday when we'd never seen it before.
Maybe it was AWACS - but the only plane we actually saw was far too high to see any detail.
(And one of my colleagues fully believes in chemtrails...

Thanks - I just picked out a pic of G-FRAR because it seemed to establish the type of plane I snapped. The orange and black one I actually saw (on page 1) seems to be carrying similar gear but I haven't found out who operates it. I was assuming it would be military but given your info, it could be anyone! Pretty cool livery, even in fuzzyvision.
