Fascinating! The answers to every question you’ve ever had about flying…

Flying for business or pleasure is to many people one of the most thrilling experiences in the world, but it remains full of mystery for the average traveller.
Do pilots require a key to start a plane? Where flight attendants sleep on long-haul flights and why do planes leave long white trails in the sky? etc
Condensation trails are similar to the fog that results when a person exhales on a cold day. The white condensation trails form when humid exhaust from jet engines cools very quickly in colder and dryer air at higher altitudes. Water vapour, strange as it might seem, is a by-product of the combustion within jet engines, which is where the humidity comes from.
