....And no, I am not Flat Earther. The Earth is clearly an oblate spheroid.
I am not really sure what you mean. Maybe a photo would help?
Whatever it is, I have a sneaking suspicion altitude has something to do with it. Contrails normally appear at some 30,000 ft. Most of your everyday cumulus etc clouds hang around a third of that altitude or less.
