Flight Aware Question
For the past year I have been using flight aware to look at air traffic tracking. I you pick a certain airport say PIT, it would show all aircraft enroute and that departed, and in another color it would show all air traffic in the area. You can hit the icon, it would show the airline and equipment. Example UA 1574 738 (ORD-EWR). The past week when going to the site it only shows a few aircraft in the area and not all aircrfraft and this is true whatever airport you choose. Is this a problem with the software or will complete tracking be avalaible.

Thanks
But it is showing some flights not going to the airport. The example I gave using PIT it stilled showed UA 1574 (ORD-EWR). I live near CLE which has tons of aircraft flying
over, so how can I track all air traffic not plugging in the airport code.

To see overflights you have to use the View Activity button on the left. If you jump to the EnRoute/Scheduled map the overflights are not shown.
