    Perhaps vapour trails are more likely to coincide like this nowadays.
    But once when driving in the Great Karoo I saw two bands of cloud crossing each other like this. They were high up, at different altitudes, but they clearly made a saltire in the sky.
    I saw a similar phenomenon captured in a coffee-table book many years later, but sadly I forget the name of the book.
    Regards,
    Mike
