Description

The original and most highly rated plane tracking app, ranked number one in the Navigation category in over 20 countries.

Our Plane Finder apps have been featured on Gizmodo, CNN, GMA, Sunday Times, Mail on Sunday, CNET, GQ Magazine and many more.

Dont take our word for it check out our ratings and the wide range of positive press weve had across the world.

Our coverage is unrivalled we have a rapidly expanding network of receivers and feeds globally. Our coast-to-coast US network includes both JFK and LAX to ground level. Further afield we have extensive coverage across Europe and are rapidly expanding our networks in Asia, Australia, Central and South America. Our global coverage includes ground level at London Heathrow, Gatwick, Paris CDG, Barcelona, Schiphol, Prague, Hong Kong, Sydney, Melbourne and many more.

As airlines and operators equip their planes we are seeing a daily increase in the number of commercial and general aviation aircraft tracked by our live systems.

Plane Finder provides near real time virtual radar air traffic radar maps. Its easy to use and is an amazing app for anyone interested or involved in aviation, planes, flights or air traffic control. Its also great if you simply want to know whats up there or want to see your friends and family in the air.

Features include:

Live moving planes
Share your sightings with friends and family via Facebook and Twitter
Flight path contrails
Beautifully detailed aircraft illustrations
Photographs of aircraft
Search by flight number or aircraft registration number
Bookmark favorite locations e.g. set a ground level view of major airports
Filter - by airline, aircraft type, departure airport, destination, speed, altitude and more.
Set up Notification Alerts including aircraft, flight, squawk and more
Flight information - including flight number, route, altitude, speed, plane type, airline, registration number
Technical information including squawk codes, ICAO/IATA codes, ADS Hexcode and heading

Plane Finder works by picking up ADS-B plane feeds used by aircraft to transmit their name, position, destination and lots more. This technology is actually faster than radar and is used for air traffic control and navigation.

Our global coverage is unrivalled and expanding all of the time, please check www.planefinder.net regularly for our current data coverage and to track planes on your desktop machine.

Pinkfroot are committed to customer service and continually improve our Plane Finder apps based on feedback. Follow us on Twitter @pinkfroot, and join our online community at www.pinkfroot.com If you have any questions please email support@pinkfroot.com and well be happy to help.

Our companion Apps - Plane Finder AR, Plane Finder HD, Airline Finder, Ship Finder, Ship Finder HD and Ship Finder AR are all highly rated and enjoyed by both professionals and anyone with an interest in planes and ships.

Note: ADS-B is not currently used by all airlines or aircraft. However this is changing and the number of aircraft tracked via ADS-B is increasing all of the time.
