The picture at the top is an IR plume from a jet. Guess that doesn't make a very good article. Why would this article be in a "science" magazine?

  > The picture at the top is an IR plume from a jet The article doesn't say that. How can you be so sure from a still image?

    Because he once used flew a plane in Flight Simulator 2020 and knows the equipment and IR signatures of various aircrafts better than the pilots who reported this.

    Because that's exactly what one looks like and that's what anyone who analyzes the image says it is?
