interesting, seems to be random. I've gotten Portland which was also not too busy but nevertheless enough to understand the beauty of it.


This thing is dangerous. It's going to nerd snipe me into a new hobby.

It looks completely accurate. I could see the medivac helicopters taking off, and it matched 1:1.

I missed a biplane flying over the city. And some other low-flying planes circling mysteriously.

If I had a telephoto lens and a way to alert myself of large planes flying low (happens frequently), C-130s, F-22s, etc. I think I'd waste way too much time.

I need to avoid looking into this more.


No, lean in! Haha

I’m looking into adding better data providers so there are fewer missing planes.


It’s a random assortment of ~20 US cities. I’m happy to add another one into the mix if you’d like.

If there’s an airport you want to default to, search for it and save the URL
