[Closed] Look what they did to my sky

I feel your pain. I was out riding on Sunday and the sky was clear blue. May never see that again.

Yeah exactly, I was getting cloud rage!

Had exactly that conversation earlier. A few days of quiet in the countryside, and superbly clear blue skies... now gone.

Its made me realise just how much crap these planes put out, and how much cloud appears in their wake!

it's vile. I want the clean blue sky back.

It makes me sad - we may never see that blue again.

I've never seen clouds actually forming like that, the wind was really light so they just lingered for hours

really made my birthday ride on sunday up in cranham. been marveling every day.

The little thin vapour trails trigger the formation of cirrus clouds - it's not all from the planes, but the planes do cause them. Shame.

don't worry, I'm sure there will be another eruption soon enough...

Bring on electric planes

I live right next to Gatwick. It's been heaven. You can hear the birds and smell the flowers. Shame. Most of us wanna go on holiday though.

the volcano gets my vote.. we sat and watched any trace of blue sky summer slipping away here..

have woken again this morning to a very pale milky blue number.. I'm really quite fu*cking upset by it to be honest..

I live near the airport in Yeadon and looking over that direction it's all wispy clouds now. I hadn't realised that planes were responsible... maybe we should throw hand grenades into volcanoes. There was a plot to do that on Inspector Gadget once, it was cunningly disguised as a pineapple.

I think there is nothing for it but to offer up a sacrifice to the volcano to get it spewing again.*

*Just after 3rd June tho, as have to take my mum the airport.

wow, i never knew planes did that. trigger clouds that is, really sad isn't it? but how come on some summer days you do get perfect blue skies?

there was an article on radio4 about how they were taking the opportunity to measure the effects of con trails on solar radiation reaching the planet's surface. Apparently the reflect radiation away during the day and reflect it back at night. It's actually quite a significant effect

Bring on electric planes

Maybe ones with giant twisted rubber bands to power the rotor

That's what Cheltenham looks like? Looks quite nice.
