Why do airplanes leave the white stream behind them sometimes and not other times?

simple, if any situation should arise that an emergency landing be required, a land route is the best way to go if an emergency should arise and the pilot can divert to the closest possible airfield. If the aircraft (god forbid) was unable to make it to an airfield and had to make an emergency landing, then it would be easier to find a plane on the ground, rather than in the water.

Has anyone heard about the Airbus A380 having structural failure allready?


It depends where the destination is, also weather conditions, both are used in determining the safest, most efficient route to fly on. Here in the US, we have a system of 'airways' which are used both by private and commercial aircraft. Air Traffic Control centers keep planes evenly spaced and safe.
