8.22am on a Sunday morning. Each one of these vapour trails is a plane. And each plane holds a few hundred people leaving Gatwick and heading south-east for mainland Europe or beyond.
Thousands of people. Thousands of far-away adventures beginning in the sky above Brighton on a chilly February morning.
We know that we need to reduce air travel, for the sake of our planet. But is the answer really to tax the poor out of being able to travel, so foreign experiences become the preserve of the wealthy once again?
Let's get more into travelling by other means, so we can all keep having adventures.
