The investigation of the impact of aircraft parameters on contrail properties helps to better understand the climate impact from aviation. Yet, in observations, it is a challenge to separate aircraft and meteorological influences on contrail formation. During the CONCERT campaign in November 2008, contrails from 3 Airbus passenger aircraft of type A319-100, A340-300 and A380-800 were probed at cruise under similar meteorological conditions with in-situ instruments on board the DLR research aircraft Falcon.
