That is a very sweet looing shot Greg, very atmospheric if you'll pardon the pun.

The atmospherics must have been interesting for it to form a contrail just after take off. I didn't think they formed until way up in the atmosphere 20,000 plus.

Lol, just joking...

They are indeed nice! Not as interesting as an A-380 contrail though... ;D

Using my oh so advanced microsoft paint, i have found that to be an A-340. 4 contrails, and airbus widebody tail gives it away! Most likely Air Canada too, since SAS has a blue tail, Virgin red and Lufthansa blue, and i dont think that many more A-340s pass over Canada.
