Cool Air Traffic Control website

If you would like to visually track a flight live while it is flying, click on over to:

http://www.thetrip.com/flightstatus

It gives altitude, speed, location and an option to display all this info on a map.

ok - thank you - I'll try it out.

must be the same inflight-info-system they (for example UA, SR) show on their screens for everybody: distance gone, to go, altitude, actual location on the map, miles per hour, time landing is expected etc.

Rudi, I remember my Lufthansa flights from EWR to Frankfurt/Munich had the same flight
tracking system on the walls of each cabin.
I liked it... it allowed me to relax a little
more knowing almost when I would be on teh
ground.

With the air traffic control channel I can
feel like I'm "Flying" the plane. CATMAN
