How common is that?
Every time I've seen a contrail, it looks whole. Then again, most the planes I've seen around my town are two-engined jets.
The only time I've seen a 4 engined contrail was on TV, showing a B-52 that was dropping an H-bomb for detonation (part of the film "Trinity and Beyond").
That would be a good one to give to the LC crowd; why release chemtrails when you're about to explode a big nuke?
I can imagine the response.

B52: That's an eight-engined contrail.

I don't have statistical data on the contrails, but i know that often i can clearly see a contrail is coming from a 4 engined aircraft because I see 4 separate parts in the first part behind the aircraft. After some distance they melt together. In many cases very soon, but more often than "rarely" only after quite some distance.
