Calling Flyertalk Geeks - Someone Build This...
As someone who used to love "Channel 9" on UA, listening to ATC I realized from one of the other forums that you can listen to ATC on liveatc.net over the aircraft wifi connection. Problem comes when you have to follow along for the frequency changes in flight - so, what I'm asking is this:
If anyone here is tech savvy enough to do this (sadly, I'm not). Someone should build some kind of app/site where you can combine flight tracking data with liveatc.net - once on board you enter your flight number and it automatically follows your flight on ATC so you can listen the whole way, just like the old Channel 9.
Anyone think it's doable?

LiveATC audio is fed by volunteers. Most of not all of the frequencies on there are near airports as that's what the majority of demand for such a feed would be.
