Pretty crazy how many planes there are in the sky at any one time.

Works for me.

Hmm I've always been curious which airport is sending their planes directly over my apartment complex when en route to the local airport. I assumed it was Dulles, but that doesn't appear to be the case!

EDIT:

It wanted me to install the Google Earth plug-in if that helps you out.

Thanks for posting this. I was looking for something like this a couple years ago.

 

[Printer Bandit]

[D1gger]

Impressive. That is a great site.

 

[waggy]

that is cool. thanks for posting.

 

[Farang]

cool, a bit delayed though

 

[isekii]

And if you look at the Map US has the most delayed planes

 

[Mixolydian]

That's a lot of planes.

 

[lupi]

pretty neat. love how US traffic dwarfs everyone else. seems like almost nothing over africa and most of the oz traffic up and down the east coast.

Definitely not every plane. Not even close

Why doesn't China have any planes?

Why doesn't China have any planes?

Because bikes don't fly, duh!

Besides, they'd all fall out of the sky due to congestion.

Maybe they're all tainted with lead and too heavy to take off!

Woah that's awesome. Never realized there was that many planes in the sky at any given time. Especially in the US, that is insane! Imagine the scramble when all flights were told to land at the same time on 9/11. D:

"The Google Earth Plugin is currently only available on Windows and Mac OS X 10.4+."

Boooo, hate how coders never think of Linux. The cockpit view would have been awesome to see.

I raise your planes in the sky with ships on the ocean.

i wonder if they're missing some data? or how much they're missing. europe looks quite empty considering how busy some airports like Heathrow are.

Yes and remote control is working too but unfortunately I skipped the tutorial

It wasn't pretty. Canada really came through for us by allowing so many to land in their airspace.
