Chemtrails being produced through nozzle at aft of jet engine?
I noticed the hollow exhaust cone, with no explanation for the purpose of this being hollow.

I already told you why. I've been up close and personal to these engines for years. FUEL drips out, on the ground, from the center opening of the exhaust cone!!!

Since early on in the Chemtrails investigation, it was reported that JP8 fuel, the fuel used commonly by military jets, contained EDB, ethylene dibromide, a known carcinogen. And, necessarily then, if Chemtrails were made by military jets, we, an unwitting public, were breathing in EDB. This was, in part, based on the report of a laboratory sample of "aviation fuel" that was cited in an early Chemtrails investigation story.
All the research that I have done on this subject has turned up nothing to support the claim that JP8, or JP- 8+100 (military jet fuels) or any other military or commercial fuels, contain EDB now, nor did they ever.
So, again, to set the record straight, I am sharing some of my research notes on this subject with readers to allay any fears that Chemtrails are causing us to breathe in carcinogens in the form of EDB. This is research gleaned from interviews with Mr. Chuck L. Davis of NASA,s Fuel Propulsion Studies, the United States Air Force, an independent researcher at the University of North Carolina, and the Environmental Protection Agency.
All three cooling agents can be used to either induce or suppress precipitation, depending on the amount that is administered and the condition of the clouds
But other areas, including nearby Santa Barbara, have continued to use the method, typically employing airplanes or ground-based generators to spray silver iodide above mountains and watersheds.

**sigh**
The fuel is introduced into the combustion plenum to be burned, when there is ignition present. When we shut down a jet engine, we use a lever which actuates electic valves which close off the fuel lines, right near the "Fuel Control Unit", which is the last item the fuel is routed to before it is sprayed through the nozzles to be combusted.
Small traces of fuel, left in the lines FROM the FCU to the nozzles will drip into the combustion plenum, after shut-down. That fuel is not allowed to just sit there, and pool in the bottom of the burner 'can', as it's called. BECAUSE, next engine start, chance of that igniting and blowing fire out the tailpipe. Not really dangerous, but puts undue uneven heat stress on the components...AND at night, there have been cases of jittery passengers initiating their own evacuation, in a panic because they think the engine is on fire!!!
SO...residual fuel is given a way to drip out, onto the ground, when the engine is sitting and not running.
Capiche??

1,2-Dibromoethane is the chemical compound with the formula BrCH2CH2Br. Although trace amounts occurs naturally in the ocean, where it is formed probably by algae and kelp, it is mainly a synthetic. This a colorless liquid with a sweet odor, detectable at 10 ppm, is a widely used and sometimes controversial fumigant.
-------------
Uses
The once dominant use, although one that has faded, is as an additive in leaded gasoline. 1,2-Dibromoethane reacts with lead residues to generate volatile lead bromides. It has been used as a pesticide in soil, and various crops. The applications were initiated after the forced retirement of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP). Most of these uses have been stopped by in the U.S. It continues to be used a a fumigant for treatment of logs for termites and beetles, control of moths in beehives, and as a preparation for dyes and waxes.
200 lbs of silver iodide will cover the entire US in silver iodide smoke.
Still, with all your supposed knowledge
...you cannot explain why there is a hole in the nozzle.

Now....doesn't it make a lot more sense, IF the Powers That Be were trying to "poison" the people, wouldn't they do it with automotive and truck fuel???
