Spotted this morning, can any aviation experts out there explain this? I've never noticed it before. The trail was west to east with the blue stripe on the south side. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2021/04/08/IMG_20210408_084255.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2021/04/08/IMG_20210408_084309.jpg)

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Yes, most likely a shadow. I've noticed them occasionally, and it takes a while for your brain to accept there's a thin cloud layer below the contrail!

Thanks Alistair, I'm assuming that the shadow was cast by the moon then, which must have been North of the trail? The sun would have been ESE when I took the picture.

If the sun is low on the horizon or there is a thin low level cloud base it can cause this.
