Before the jet can carry it - 'it' must reach the jet. Some of the coal power plants burn 1-mile train of coal every 7 min. "In fact, the fly ash emitted by a power plant—a by-product from burning coal for electricity—carries into the surrounding environment 100 times more radiation than a nuclear power plant producing the same amount of energy." "Scientific American" Dec 13 2007
I would assume that what you say is true pavel486, but isn't that during normal ops and not a core meltdown? And the radiation doesn't have to reach the jet stream, really, it's going to circulate in the trade winds too. Lucky us.
