True, unfortunately lightning maps doesn't seem to be accurate - at least I had 0 luck with it. On the other hands flightradar24 and similar are so fascinating if you are on a busy plane route. The observation time is so perfect to speculate over the plane and destinations, chat about interesting facts or recent developments at destinations. A few years ago I visited a small village where a relative of mine lives and happen to show a kid the app. Next year, I heard that the all the kids there made it a hobby to do plane spotting.
