You can close in on your country/state/locality, zoom in, find aircraft and flight info, etc. Sometimes ... sometimes .. even military aircraft pop up. https://www.flightradar24.com/37.9,-78.65/6 RobMc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very quiet at the moment as so few aircraft are flying. I have made more use, over the years, of Marinetraffic.com, to identify ships transitting the English Channel.

Radar wouldn't show all the aircraft taxiing around the airports getting ready for takeoff or after landing. Most of the time I'm squawking 7700....
