Why Aircraft with Jet Engines Form Cloud Trails

It is worth pointing out that jet plane exhaust is mostly water...

I beg to disagree a jet engine exhaust is mostly nitrogen.

For its length, this is an astonishingly confusing post.

I beg to disagree a jet engine exhaust is mostly nitrogen.

At face value, you are pointing out that jet plane exhaust is mostly water and, at the same time, disagreeing that it is mostly nitrogen.

I think this is not meant to be your words; I think it is a quote of https://www.physicsforums.com/showpost.php?p=2310855&postcount=14".
Took about ten minutes of my life to figure that out. Please use the quote feature.

You are disagreeing that a jet exhaust is mostly nitrogen. Since no one ever mentioned nitrogen, it makes no sense for you to disagree with something never said.

So I'm going to guess this is a punctuation thing. I think what you meant to say was:

I beg to disagree; a jet engine exhaust is mostly nitrogen.

That took another ten minutes of my life to figure out. Please use proper punctuation.


OK, that's all sorted out. Now...


What makes you think it's comprised of nitrogen? Back up your claim.

Nitrogen in, nitrogen out. The atmosphere is 80% nitrogen. It's a necronitpick.
