Anyone used the AvTraffic app to provide a traffic feed for OzRunways?
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone is familiar with or uses AvTraffic to provide a traffic overlay in OzRunways?
I have found it works seamlessly to provide 'most' ADSB traffic to OzRunways for those of us who can't justify a separate ADSB receiver.
It appears to display most ADSB traffic but doesn't seem to have quite the same level of coverage as say FlightRadar24 (some flights disappear close to the ground while FR24 will still have them displayed). Obviously its too much of a PITA to switch between FR24 and OzRunways; and AvTraffic seems to strike a nice balance and also has the advantage of displaying some ADSB traffic that FR24 blocks out (like PolAir flights and private owners who have requested their aircraft be blocked).
Does anyone know how the network of receivers that AvTraffic uses differs from that of say FlightRadar24? Are we talking a similar number of receivers or is it actually the same network?
