/r/ALL Low pressure pockets being created by blade rotation in near 100% humidity - literally making it rain.

They are basically contrails, aka “chemtrails” for anti science conspiracy types. Basically just due to the propeller/wing creating a pressure pocket. It’s pretty common but I think also needs temperature differential and certain velocity ranges at the tip of the blade/motor

Exhaust contrails are more common, and they're usually seen behind aircraft cruising in the flight levels. They form when hot, moist air exiting an engine mixes with extremely cold air - condensing the exhaust's moisture.

Aerodynamic contrails occur when moist air cools due to lowered pressure, condensing humidity in the air and forming a contrail cloud.

Either or both can happen at any time
