Was just going to post this.
I noticed it first in the TA at Bishop A1 with a B-17. Moved to a different Bishop field in TA and got same results.
Went to the open LW Orange arena to see what would happen there and rolled a B-17 from A1, I think it was, and the wheel dust did act correctly turning off after wheels left the runway.

Forgot to add, if this could be turned on and off at a certain altitude, Con-trails  :aok

On the other hand, unless you were over a runway, the con-trail would be green/brown.   :confused:

Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.
