    Cool website

    As my current gig is under the flight path of Heathrow I know exactly where every plane that is flying over me is heading to and what type of plane it is. The website tracks in near real time every commercial flight anywhere in the world
    Flightradar24.com - Live flight tracker!

    Yes I'm bored

      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

          The ones that haven't moved for 3 months or more are probably G4S or Serco customers

            It's a brilliant website isn't it. It is not near-realtime is IS realtime (for the yellow planes in Europe), and 5-minutes delayed for orange US planes.

            You can see worldwide traffic as well.

              Where are you based? Poyle or Slough, or further into London?

                No it's near real time as there is about a 10-20 second delay between the plane flying over and the map showing the plane at my position.

                  Between Slough and High Wycombe, closer to the latter
