HOW DOES PLANE FINDER WORK?

Plane Finder receives real time ADS-B and MLAT signals sent by aircraft to transmit their positional data to land based receivers. This technology is faster than traditional radar and is used for air traffic control and navigation. ADS-B is not used by all airlines or aircraft, however this is changing and the number of aircraft tracked by ADS-B is increasing all of the time.

Pros and cons of Plane Finder - Flight Tracker app for iPhone and iPad

Plane Finder - Flight Tracker app good for

Great app,plane watching will never be the same,all the info is great and easy to understand,makes watching planes fly over the house even more interesting

Love seeing where the plane im am currently seeing is going and where its been in the past.

Excellent app, extremely accurate. Great if you like to travel or just as hobby seeing flight path, air traffic, air craft specifications and understanding aviation.

I have downloaded a couple similar app but plane finder is the only one that actualy works.

Always wondered what I was looking at and where they were off to. Occasionally, some Regional flights are being mis-identified as a national carrier. Aside from that, enjoy the app very much.

This app solves a state of wonder Ive had since I was a small child. However, there are glitches in the route, and the flight path goes wonky. Very minor, but they are a major part of why the app exists. Oh, and Africa and South America apparently dont have any plane traffic at all.

Some bad moments

The lay out of the map does a poor job of explaining why flights are routed through the North over Yukon Territory and Alaska. These planes look as if they are taking a wide detour but in reality they are traveling a straight line to Asia. Please fix by offering a different view of the earth, or use real maps.

Would like to think this app would be accurate as it cost $4.99 but cant really trust the data when it shows planes that should be nowhere near Toroto flying overhead. Also my hometown of Timmins ON has countless jet streams over head but non show on this app. Most flight are Europe or Asiabound as well. Stick to the free app!

東北、北海道地区サーチしない。高い割には、いまいち。flight radarの方がまし。

Its not worth the money if you want to use it in Asian (Japanese) airspace. However, Ill give it one star because the aircraft icon represents the aircraft type; not like FR24.

İt always gives errors about finding aircrafts. And also we cant see aproaching and departing traffics around ataturk airports. İ dont interest another locations.

İt is almost useless.Waste of money.Needs lot of improvement.
