Website to view Actual Path of Airplane in-flight?
 
I am interested in viewing the actual flight path of an aircraft currently in-flight. Does anybody know of any links?

Thanks a billion!
Maple

I believe you can find this at www.trip.com

If you want to bookmark the direct link, it's http://flight.trip.com/ft/home/0,2096,1-1,00.shtml

Is a java app, so you'll have to make sure java is enabled on your browswer.

flyerwife,

Thank you so much... you don't know how much comfort you brought me with this simple gesture. A good friend of mine just flew back home, and I cannot adjust to the sudden emptiness of the house - so my only comfort is to view his flight in motion.

Eternally grateful,
Maple

My gratitude is similarly extended to cblaisd, thank you.

www.trip.com gives has the best graphics and automatically updates. Unfortunately, it can't handle international flights.

The graphics on www.flightview.com aren't nearly as slick. And, to update, you have to click the refresh button. But, it does do international, as well as domestic flights.

If this doesn't help you, try www.abstravel.com

Maple, you're welcome....

There's another cool version at http://www.flytecomm.com/ (don't know if it does international) Direct link is http://216.33.28.152/ I sort of like this one's display.
This site also gives you code to put your own Flight Tracker button on a web page.

And here's another site: http://www.rlmsoftware.com/fvtrack.htm

And if you really want to get into it, at http://www.avweb.com/sponsors/fe/index.html
You can download a windows app and for $10 a month you can connect to the real-time database of every ATC-tracked flight in the United States and display them in a variety of ways.
(Got this one from Doc's latest post on http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum94/HTML/002164.html Thanks Doc).

If anyone's counting besides me, this is my 250th post.... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
