This declassified Porton Down film, which is Crown Copyright, shows a Valetta aircraft making a number of passes in front of the camera - all the time spraying the Biological Warfare simulant - Zinc Cadmium sulphide. These particular experiments were conducted during March 1958, and were conducted to determine the characteristics of an aircraft mounted Zinc Cadmium sulphide dispenser. The resulting information was then used in Porton Down's later public area BW experiments, some of which (the Large Area Coverage or LAC) contaminated vast swathes of the UK. A BW simulant is a supposedly harmless substance which mimics the physical properties of a real BW agent, in this case, size (between 1-5 microns). BW simulants are used in BW experiments in which, for safety reasons, a real BW agent could not be used.
A similar procedure was adopted for the 1963/64 Norwich Trials. An aircraft, this time a Devon, sprayed the BW simulant Zinc Cadmium sulphide, at a rate of 2-3 lbs per mile, as it flew along a 62 nm track across Norfolk - at a distance of 24 miles upwind of the city of Norwich. When the massive aerosol cloud reached its target area, Porton Down scientists conducted clandestine sampling of the air at a large number of locations, across the city and surrounding countryside.
The point initially was to enlarge on what TG had said, I already knew there were two airports with Ft Sill in the name, and neither are correctly known as Ft Sill. One is Lawton Fort Sill, 8599 ft the other is Henry post Army, Air field (Fort Sill) 5000 ft, so in fact you were just a vague as TG, even when I was being specific about a name. He also said big 'planes. A C130 hercules could do the job on both runways, maybe other 'planes could also. Until TG is more specific as to what type of 'plane, we can't really contradict him as yet.

No....LOOK at the airport codes!
I think he figured it out In any case, Gunderson doesnt know what he is talking about. I just wonder whether someone is telling him all this, trying to at least piggyback on someone more well known. Gunderson doesnt exactly have much credibility anymore, but he has more than Prince, who is a chemmie too

Actually yes we can. Someone that lives in Ft Sill posted in the thread that there was nothing but helicopters based there. There certainly is not some secret C-130 unit there. We have no corroborating evidence of it either other than him saying something.
And with a payload, the C-130 does not even reach contrailing altitudes either.
It seems that you would just believe whatever he says until proven otherwise, when there is frankly not any evidence for his statements. There is no evidence of any kind of similar aircraft at Ft Sill, or Lawton for that mattter. No evidence for unmarked bomber type chemplanes at the Lincoln airport either.
Are you going to believe in his statements about 30,000 guillotines being stored at military bases too, until thats disproven? It doesnt hurt to be skeptical of wild claims and make them give the proof, rather than believing until proven wrong.

Does 23+ years flying airliners count at all? Along with many years in previous flying experiences.

No.
Because as per Traditional Drummer, you're inviting us to believe you on the basis of an 'appeal to authority' - and one which we can't even verify! Can anyone say 'Logically Fallacious'?
Better luck next time in convincing everyone that you know all there is to know about the sky above our heads.

In my opinion, this is an interesting response. I haven't seen evidence yet that has not been extremely biased, improperly gathered, or speculative. The original post of this thread implies speculation that Ted Gunderson is associated well enough with the US federal government to hold a credible opinion regarding chemtrails. All of the information presented in this thread is by your definition, with the exception of credible information cited as scientific source data, logical fallacy.
The debate can't work that way. You either accept the fact that some variables are assumed to be true and focus on the topic, or you accept the fact that your belief system is contradictory to itself.

That should apply to all parties, and quite frankly it's not. And perhaps you should ask if someone has a belief system in the first place, or are they just trying to wean out something that makes sense. I do recall you making a post about finding Barium in water, I find that strange. Barium is the metal and it reacts in water and air to make another form. So you are obfuscating, just as Pilot likes to do if he thinks someone is gull enough to lap up his every word, just leave a little bit out, here and there.

I do not obfuscate, I actually post exactly what I mean and deal with specifics.
And yes, you are correct, if someone found a piece of pure barium metal sitting in water, that would be strange. And your reasoning is sound as to why it would be strange, and would also be debunk those would would make such a claim that they did. Most likely, it would have been Barium sulfate, because that is water soluable too, and used in lots of applications down at ground level
