The aircraft normally fly at above 30,000 feet where the air is always ultra cold and very thin. The thin air reduces the amount of resistance to the aircraft moving through it and the engine's large compressor is able to compact that thin air sufficiently to get optimum combustion conditions and thus form vapor trail.

What is the tail of a comet is made of?
A comet usually has two tails, though only one - the vapor trail - is commonly seen from earth (the other is a gas trail). It is made of vapor blown off from the comet by the solar wind - it is mostly water vapor, but contains many other molecular substances, too - ammonia, cyanide, methane, etc.

How do you convert water into gas state?
liquid water spontaneously turns into water vapor, its gas state. at higher temperature this phase transition accelerates until the boiling point is reached, at which point steam is produced instead of water vapor.
Why you see smoke of high flying airplanes?
That line of smoke is called a vapor trail. You can still see it on low flying planes, but it must be a jet plane.
What is an Aeroplane smoke trail called?
A contrail or a vapor trail. See the related link for confirmation.
What is snow and how is it produced?
Snow is frozen water vapor. It is produced when water vapor in the air is turned solid by the freezing temperature.
What is smoke from a airplane made of?
Carbon monoxide and other left overs from combustion. However, the trail you see behind a plane flying high up is called the contrail, and it consists of water vapor that freezes behind the plane.
How is vapor pressure produced?
When particles vaporize, they collide with the walls of the container producing vapor pressure.
What substance is produced when hydrogen is burned?
Water vapor.
What is produced when liquid changes to gas?
