Yes you will see the new ATR 72-600s show up now ZK-MVA & MVB this is because they have newer Avionics to the other turboprops

I've got flight radar 24 pro installed on my iPhone but recently it just crashed to desktop. Any clues anyone? I've googled it but I haven't got any decent results

My desktop one isn't working properly either, still showing all aircraft but when I select an aircraft it is not giving any details etc so must be having a bit of a glitch hopefully it will come right again soon

Just installed on my new ASUS TF300t tablet,

Works brilliantly!!! plus in the alternative mode
the ability with GPS enabled, I just
point it skywards and it locks onto anything within range
or in view and all the info is there.

Very entertaining !!

Paul, my iphone is only a 3GS but it's running ios 6.1.3, and the pro version of Flight Radar. Maybe see if there's an update in the app store?

I can see the aircraft (photo) now ... but if i try to use the cockpit view (on the laptop...Mac) it crashes back to the desktop with some odd msg about google earth.
Will try on the desktop.

Again mentioned before , choice weapon system , take a laptop out to the airport to tract incomings ... what they need tho is every aircraft to carry the transmitter .

Try aircraft view. Loads faster and wthout the shimmering scenery as the flight eats it up at 900kph.
