plus click "Flugzeug" (aircraft) and it'll get you all ac details including a matching photo!

Have fun, :tab:

That is a neat site and I like the way it is superimposed on the map.

I use this site for live tracking in North America and rather than it being for a fixed location you can select either the aircraft reg/flight number, airline name or airport code to search for live tracks.

It works nicely along with my Ham Radio which also has air band on it so that I can listen to the transmissions while watching the track. I also have a number of bookmarks for live internet ATC audio feeds and often monitor Toronto International and others especially during bad weather. It's often quite interesting to listen to the 'banter' and I have had a number of laughs especially during quiet periods when the ATC ops have time for a chit chat with the pilots rather than just crunching the numbers.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for my area :-(

Well I did say 'for live tracking in North America'.....DOH!








...or did you mean you can't access it from your location?

[Garry Russell]

Nope

I mean it covers certain areas..like North America and parts or Europe but unfortunately it does not cover my area :-(
