Tail number search
Look up aircraft by registration and move from search to the map without navigating through unrelated pages.
Central Aviation Tracking
Aircraft tracking: from identity to available flight track
Follow a particular aircraft rather than just a flight number. Check its registration, the latest observation and any available track before interpreting its movement.
Flight context
See an aircraft in the context of its route, position and surrounding traffic.
Saved aircraft
Free accounts can keep a focused list of favorite aircraft for faster return visits.
Registration, callsign, and aircraft type
A registration identifies an airframe, while a callsign can identify the flight or operation transmitting it. Aircraft type describes the model family, not one unique aircraft. Start with registration search when you need a particular airframe, and check the returned identity before following it.
Read a track without filling in missing data
Compare the latest observation time with the available trail. A break in coverage is not proof of a stop, and a position near an airport does not confirm an arrival there. Use available route details to distinguish a reported origin or destination from a visual guess.
Connect aircraft tracking to your watch list
Save a confirmed match in Favorites, then return to the same aircraft when new observations are available. For business aircraft, the private jet tracking guide explains visibility limitations. To understand traffic around a field, switch to the airport trackers instead of assuming every nearby aircraft belongs to the same route.
