stuck on 2 clues, I think I have the answer to one but I could be totally wrong, help appreciated

13ac/27d not an easy judgement this... (4,4) *a*d **l* I think hard call or even hard wall, there is another clue immediately after that starting with an ellipses, hewn is the answer [anagram of when] so I assume it is connected in some way "when unevenly cut"

27ac track that which follows an aircraft - at 16 longtitude perhaps? 8 letters **N*R*I*
[16d the clue was ________________H2O________

_______________________h2O________________________

Answered it as waterlines]

I hope I've provided enough to help any solver who thinks they can assist me and many thanks MG

Hard call looks good. Sorry I can't get a grip on the other one.

Thank you for your time, it must be contrail, the artificial cloud, I just couldn't see it at this time, so hard call is the answer to the other question, thank you

Colllins Dictionary gives contrail as another word for a vapour trail. Jolan isn't known for being wrong.
