Basic answer is water vapour from the combustion of the hydrocarbon fuel burnt in the engine. The low temp at high altitude causes the vapour to condense - so it is a man made cloud.
All hydrocarbon fuels burn in air (combining with oxygen) to produce water (hydrogen oxide) and carbon dioxide.

Why a trail is formed behind flying airplane?
At high altitudes a "contrail" or condensation trail is formed due to the combustion from the engines. Whether or not they form depends entirely on atmosphere conditions.

What is the cloud called that forms on a jets wing when it changes direction?
The cloud that forms on a jet's wing when it changes direction is called a contrail. This is short for condensation trail, which is formed when the air pressure and temperature changes around the airplane wings cause water vapor to condense and form a visible cloud.
Who is Samuel cloud?

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.
What happened to Samuel cloud's mother?
She died on the Trail of Tears. Samuel Cloud woke up to her cold, dead body.
What particle leaves a short thick trail in a cloud chamber?
An alpha particle leaves a short, thick trail in a cloud chamber due to its high ionization capabilities, which means it can ionize many atoms along its path, leading to a dense trail.
