The ship one is awesome, cheers for that!.
Used to live in Putney. Pretty good view of planes from my bedroom window. Back in the days of Concorde.
Used to live at end of Filton runway too. That was even better on the rare occasions that Concorde went home.
Nothing on the radar now - nightflight curfew. First flight looks like it's an MD11 to Almaty
Passed close over our house just now.
Airbus A320-211 Munich to Manchester, due to land at 22:40
Cheers the kids will like that link.
Love the ios app, point the camera at the plane and it will tell you where it's going.
Tarom airlines Romania to Dublin 427 mph 40000 ft flight RO397.
Well, they are hardly out of my window, but the nearest flights to me are VA2562, Virgin Australia Broome - Port hedland, or BTK6541, Batik Air Kupang - Jakarta. Im on a SemiSub Drilling Rig sailing from East Timor to somewhere between Truscott and Broome on the NW coast of Australia.
Errrrrr it's 2.30am and I'm sitting in my shed tracking planes, thanks guys, thanks a lot!
I've just realised why I woke up so early - easterly wind, no planes!
We used to be able to lie in bed at the weekend having breakfast and watch Concorde in a banking climb going to reheat.
Just seen a twitter post regarding a missing Malaysian flight. Many people quoting the flight just disappearing from the flight radar app. 😐
Oooh, ooh - rare one coming over (unless you live in Chester). I know how much this place enjoys niche.
