What’s in the sky right now?
FlightAware offers some of the richest flight tracking information I’ve seen to date. Among other things, you can get up to 4 months worth of take off/landing times for free. Pretty useful if you’re wondering how often a flight will be late.
Now they have a new page that tells you what planes are in the sky right now by type. Here are the first 10:
FlightAware > Live Flight Tracker > Aircraft Type
Airborne Aircaft (by type)
Count Code Aircraft Type300 B752 Boeing 757-200
281 B737 Boeing 737-700
263 CRJ2 Canadair Regional Jet CRJ-200
241 A320 Airbus A320
208 A319 Airbus A319
197 B733 Boeing 737-300
156 B738 Boeing 737-800
150 E145 Embraer ERJ-145
119 MD82 McDonnell Douglas MD-82
112 B763 Boeing 767-300
If you go to their site, you can click on those numbers and see who is operating those plans, where they are going, and more.
Pretty neat!
