Try a Google search for - contrail shadow -

Lots of images on the returns, too.

Cheers,

George and list-
    It is interesting this is brought up; I have seen
the same thing. I always thought it to be an optical
illusion of some sort (like a reflection adjacent to
the contrail) in the atmosphere but now George has me
wondering also.
    Hope someone on the list has some good information
covering this.
    Unless George and I are both goofy and seeing the
same things..
Mike
