WSI the private weather information service are touting a flight tracking add-on to their packages. We're trialling it here at my company in the UK.

It does include UK flights but the datafeed is experimental and not covered by any formal agreements and, as others realise, the rest of the European airspace 'providers' are presently having nothing to do with it.

The refresh rates I've seen are at around 60 second intervals and, in my opinion, is more than adequate for the intended role.

As a tool for tactical awareness in an ops room I think it will prove invaluable.
