I said CLAIMED it was an airliner. Not sure I buy it yet.

How about the news get a clue, and interview people living on Catalina Island, who would have had a better sightline on it?

Clearly not an airliner or any other type of plane unless they launched another scramjet. Contrails form off the wing tips and leave 2 pretty distinct lines when viewed close to object making them. I have never seen the afterburners of any military jet put out that much smoke. The only thing I know of that puts out that kind of plume would be a very large booster rocket. If I had to guess, I would go with the ballistic missle probably fired from a submarine that the military knows about but just has decided not to comment on. Makes the most sense to me...
