Negtive, that's an A320. Check the fuselage exhaust and wingtips, they don't match an E170tangolima wrote:Hello Leedseagle,leedseagle wrote:pick of today BA 737 heading north with no heat waves and excellent light

If you look to the nose that one is really pointy and at the back by the tail under it is also very pointy. By the A320 it's more a circle .
Let the best win !!!

Looks like an A320 to me...
Re: Contrail spotting September 2009
Indeed it's an A320. The ERJ170 looks a bit different, f.e. with a larger upward wingets and straighter shape of tail. According a picture of Cityflyers sole operating ERJ a/c G-LCYD, the tail cone is also painted silver.

Re: Contrail spotting September 2009
Just look at the paint scheme at the tail exhaust...it is not G-LYCD
