A couple got on the bus with their suitcases en route to the airport – they said they had their fingers crossed, not sure if they had been told their flight would be going or not.
But I saw my first con trail – descending towards Manchester – while I was waiting at the bus stop in the village, so I daresay the drivers will be carrying a few passengers with travellers tale to tell over the next few days.
Paul Simons commented on the link between the lack of cloud & the lack of contrails in his column yesterday, & he also pointed me towards the Climate survey trial - aircraft contrails OPAL for which I am grateful.
