Well if you look a pic no3, it looks like an AI plane, it has aircraft lights, no 4 looks like its got very bright landing lights, and it could be jet contrails.

I think it is the Lights along the side of the runway, as you have the camera down low, you get the lights along the runway floating in the air. Its blurred because you were panning. ;) Good trick.

It may be a AI plane with a totally messed up contrail effect.
