I am surprised nobody has mentioned Flightradar24[0] yet. It displays planes on a Google Map with altitude, airline and flight path information. The data comes directly from ADS-B receivers of volunteers, so only planes with ADS-B transponder are shown and the coverage outside of Europe is spotty.
Living in the path of a mid-size airport this tool is great for identifying noisy airplane types.

- ra 15y agoWow, that's awesome, and it's totally live. A 747 just flew over our place (Sydney Australia) and it's position on the map was spot on. http://www.flightradar24.com/QFA7589 http://www.flightradar24.com/QFA7589
- plestik 15y agoThere's also PlaneFinder: http://planefinder.net/ http://planefinder.net/ And CasperFlights (I'm the Flash developer for this one): http://casperflights.com http://casperflights.com To be honest, I think Planefinder is the most impressive at the moment, their data is very, very good and their client is pretty decent as well.
- soult 15y agoIt seems all 3 sites use ADS-B receivers as source, so the only measurement in data quality is how many receivers they have and where they are. I wasn't able to test your Flash software (Flash won't work on my computer), but since you seem to cater to plane spotters mostly: It would be cool to have your data combined with LiveATC.net so that I can see which planes are near an airport and what their pilots are saying.
