Time to change your monitor or video card. Only @ 1280 x 800 can see it clearly, not at full brightness. Or may be you guys are getting long sighted. hahaha

This plane must be very high to create such a fine line. Low enough you will see more than one light from the plane.

Sharp eyes clifford :) ....
at this magnification, it is probably a intergalactic meteor that may cause the fine line of light....
