Thanks I thought that the update 3 only added them for the plane you are flying. I never saw them on anyone elses plane until today. Thanks for the video

Are you sure? I thought the only Contrails we have are behind the Players plane only, I've yet to see evidence of them being behind other peoples planes.

I saw one today flying from paris to spain, on vatsim. I have all other multiplayer off so it might have something to do with vatsim. I only saw one but there wasn't any other aircraft around me at the time. I will post if I see it again. I'm with you I thought only my aircraft would show.

just pretend the contrail is poisonous

No what I mean is, will the contrails stick on the sky or vanish immediately? Would look pretty cool when flying online to see the contrails history of all the other aircraft that flew in a particular region.

Vatsim doesn't inject any graphics into the Sim so can't imagine it's that.

I see no contrails by Live Traffic, anyway.

I flew Longitude at high altitude and full speed a few nights ago, and when I looked back in external view I saw that my contrails looked brownish and dirty, that can not be right?

You want that detail just take a look outside. MSFS (other users) contrails do show up on Vatsim not multiplayer.
