The Top most one with botht he a/c in the picutre was taken from my college parking lot, they fly DIRECTLY over my college (located in mohali). The second two, were taken from my roof at dusk. As you can see, the angle is a bit different, you will be surprised how razor sharp their accuracy is about following routes. They will NEVER take a route even a few kms to the left or right!
These keep passing over all day and all night, the last few days have been a little boring because its got very hot in Chandigarh and hence the contrails are not formed.
The planes still pass over nonetheless, here is an example of one without a contrail, they are hard to spot without them but you can hear them.. here is an SQ 747, TG747 (old colours), KLM 747 and TG 747 (New colours).

Nice shots.
That Thai A340 looks more like a -600 than a -500. |

Oh I have no doubt, I mentioned it because someone above said it was an A345. |
