Or both.

Coventry seems to get a lot of scheduled flight movements on FR24. I believe it has an algorithm that tries to deduce, based on an aircraft's track, where it's about to land or has just taken off from.

It doesn't always get it right, particularly for takeoffs from 15 at BHX that turn left and head north ...
