Some of you may already know about this however I thought that I might just make a point about it because I'm sure that there are a few people on here who may find this interesting.

If you download the latest Google Earth Program from Google (from this website ( http://earth.google.com )

then go to this website:

http://www.fboweb.com/antest/ge/intro.aspx?old=1

you can click on as many airports etc as you want and track the aircraft en-route there. You may have to select them individually though. You also may select individual flights.

Play around, it is 3D and live which is great. I have put a JPEG below of where I set it up at the end of a landing runway at O'Hare. If you click on the aircraft it will give you its flight number, speed and altidute) You can track them right until they are doing a taxi at 9kts.

Anyway - just sharing a discovery. Enjoy!

It should work at just about any airport. I use FBOweb quite frequently and it usually shows foreign airports as well.

Just move yourself around (using your navigation tools) - you have to enable the airports on that link I posted above

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I had been wondering if flight trackers could be integrated with Google Earth. Now I know. Thanks again.
