>>Take a look at this Leonid photo. As you can see after the incandescence there's a small smoke train shooting out from the tip of the meteor. Is that in fact the smoke train from the particle/meteoroid just before entering dark flight? Or was this just the last bit of the meteoroid burning up?<<
I'd say it was just the last bit of the meteoroid burning up. It was dimming and the camera caught what little exposure it could at that point.
