Contrail


This S-shaped contrail was caused by a US Air Force B-1B "Lancer", doing some high-altitude manuevers above Honolulu. I had first seen the contrails from the third floor of Ala Moana Center. I ventured out to Ala Moana Park to get this photo. I'm not sure what it was doing, but the earlier contrails were circular as well, not a straight line like airliners would leave as they passed over Honolulu (or anywhere else).

Today's photo also happens to be the 200th photo posted on this blog!
