Best Answer

In a jet aircraft, the contrails are created by the exhaust emitted from the engines condensing in the freezing atmosphere. Since the air is so frigid at +30,000 ft, the emissions crystallize almost instantly, creating a distinctly visible trail behind the aircraft. On an airplane, the momentum is created by a series of props that pull (or push) the craft forward, creating little to no exhaust to freeze. Also note that airplanes cannot generally fly as high as jet aircraft due to their inefficient propulsion system(s), thus the air is not near cold enough to crystallize what little emissions are created.

How do you fly a plane in vice city stories?

First get an ambulance then when you see an airplane landing, park the ambulance on the airplane's path. Jump on the roof of the ambulance then when the airplane's wing is near to the ambulance, jump on the wing then do not enter before you are far to the ambulance then press triangle near the windows and you are in the plane but you can't fly it. Then it will take-off when it flies you cannot exit the airplane but if you want to exit the airplane wait until the plane lands on the runway then when the plane is on the runway you can now exit. That's all.

What gas comes out of a plane?

The primary types of jet fuel is Jet Fuel A, and Jet fuel A-1, the difference between the two is their freezing point (−40 °C vs −47 °C for Jet A-1). In almost all other regards (such as autoignition temperature, density, and open air buring temperatures) the two fuels are nearly identical.
