Very cool, has all the NZ domestic flights aswell. Good for plane spotters. Its normally a pain trawling through airline websites to find arrival and departure times.

Update: My god when you start looking over the american and european continents there is a cr@p load of aircraft in the sky at any one time, then go to NZ. Slight contrast.

This was a repeat , but i'm sure not every aircraft is showing unless they have upgraded the aircraft radio beacon or this program has been changed to pick up transponders freq's , only the aircraft types new or with the radio or few retrofitted show up .

My bad was in a bit of a rush this morning.

Yeah Ian think it said only 60% of aircraft were showing. America sure has some busy skies.

You can also get this on an android cell phone, (and I guess the iphone)
I sometimes use it to see what planes are flying overhead Nelson as I look up from below. Very handy.

On the previous post it was suggested you can also get domestic flights, where do you select this option...?

Disregard........sorted.
