Details:
A trail of waste water or coffee that is dumped in the stratosphere from an A380, it's the thin trail in the mid of the big contrail. The waste water or coffee is coming from the drainmast on the plane's fuselage. This is from a Quantas A380 at cruising altitude. You can see the waste water or coffee trail even in front of the plane in the dark painted (actually red) area. Captured through binoculars 7x50 with videocamera Sony TRV740 maximal optical zoom. Ironically, I photographed a waste water dump in space, from the spaceshuttle already a few years back. Now I have this dump in the low stratosphere! It is happening often but as it only takes about 1 minute to empty a full water tank, you must have some luck that it is just flying over.
