FlightGlobe: an OpenFlights visualizer

If you're anything like me you obsessively track all of your flight history in an OpenFlights account (actually, FlightMemory seems to be the favorite around here, but OpenFlights can actually connect to FlightMemory and load all your data from it).

I wanted a neat little animated way to relive my years of flying. So I wrote a little doodad, which I call FlightGlobe. All you need to use it is a CSV file of all your flight information exported from OpenFlights. (Log into OpenFlights, hit "List Flights" and you'll see "Export: CSV" at the right. Click that.) The application will prompt you to locate the file when it loads.

Try it out and let me know what you think!

Mac version
Windows version

And Processing source code, if anyone is curious how it works.
