    Just came across this while surfing and thought it was quite amazing!

    ===========================================================

    Here is a video clip of C-130 Hercules transport aircraft dropping Decoy Flares, which bear a striking resemblance to an Angel.

    The swirling patterns are caused by the plane's dropping decoy flares to fool and evade heat-seeking anti-aircraft missile, and they illustrate a phenomenon of wake turbulance known as vortex shedding. The drag from tips of aircraft wings tend to produce vortices or swirls, and the pattern shown here is a common sight at air shows where planes emit and fly through smoke to create pleasing visual effects.
