NATS enters the enthusiast plane-tracking market
 

Plane-tracking app explores airspace in 3D

But only if you have an iPad - if you're an Android user, you're out of luck for the time being.

I had a quick look, it's interesting enough, although I prefer the radar screen at work

NATS enters the enthusiast plane-tracking market
 

In which case, I suspect you're not among the target audience. :O

Only 11 years after Flightradar24!!

Perhaps NATS has been preoccupied with other things. :O

Does FlightRadar24 do 3D? It didn't last time I looked.

FR24 does NOT show all traffic.

To be specific, there are two reasons why some traffic doesn't appear on FR24:

(a) It's not broadcasting position and it's in an area where FR24 can't do effective multilateration because of lack of coverage

(b) It's considered to be sensitive traffic and is voluntarily suppressed by FR24 even though its location is known.

In the linked video, NATS' Matthew Mills explains that the latter will also apply to Airspace Explorer.

Plus it's not broadcasting its position because it only has a mode A or mode A/C transponder or even no transponder at all.

How are you supposed to download this app any way, there are no instructions.

The article linked in my previous post has a download link at the end.

Did it work ?

No, couldn't get it to.
