Airplane Flying Into Low Cloud Cover Creates Vortex and Swirls

  • 8 years ago
This video, from regular Schiphol airport uploader Michael Splinter, shows what happens when an airplane takes off into low clouds just above the runway. The patterns that the clouds move around the wings in cause a vortex to form behind the plane, and the movement of the air twists the clouds into swirls, leaving behind a very cool effect indeed.
