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 )
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.

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