Something of interest ...

OK so not Mil but nonetheless of interest I'm sure to quite a few ... and not just you Air Traffickers

It never ceases to amaze me at what you can access on the interWeb ... and for free ... NO not that kind of stuff

I undertook a little exploration this afternoon focused on Gatwick Traffic ... so not all traffic is shown but the Air Data available provides a seemingly reasonable representation of what's going on in almost Real Time. Tag a particular flight to get more detail and use the Pilot View to get a flight deck perspective (you need an account to do this and save your preferences).

A quick screen grab from my Mac ...



Best regards ...

This has been going for a few years and works well.

Flightradar24

Filter by A/C type and it gets really interesting sometimes

ImageGear,

With an Ipad flightradar24 is cracking. I'm with you,,it's probably the best available.

All accepted on other implementations ... The difference here being a network of real time data receivers and not a reliance on network derived data.

Quite a step forward from pure ACARS data ...
