My buddy said the 'chemtrail' stuff was just regular contrails from high altitude planes

He's a pilot for a small cargo line and told me last year that the white lines in the sky are just ice crystals from engine exhaust, nothing more. I saw a bunch of them over Phoenix yesterday and it got me thinking. Some people online say it's a secret government spray program for weather control or something. Who's right here, the guy who flies planes or the internet theories? Has anyone else had a friend in a specific job completely debunk a common conspiracy for you?

Look at what chemtrail believers say the government is spraying. They talk about aluminum, barium, weird chemicals. Now think about the sheer amount of material needed to fill the sky over a whole city. You'd need tanker trucks full of the stuff for every single plane, every single day. The logistics alone make it impossible to hide. Your buddy knows the planes, and those planes just aren't built to carry that much extra weight in secret tanks. The math doesn't add up, so the theory falls apart.

Honestly the logistics point is a good one. But ngl, I kinda get why people look up and wonder. You see those grids in the sky and it looks weird, not like a single plane path. So the theory is nuts, but the feeling that something's off is real. They just picked a crazy answer for a normal question.
