Airspace Live

Airspace Live turns your iPhone or iPad into a window on the sky above your city. Real aircraft cross a 3D map in real time, and you can follow any one of them all the way to the runway. YOUR SKY, LIVE Aircraft positions arrive every 5 seconds from a worldwide network of volunteer ADS-B receivers. Each plane is drawn where it is right now, pointing where it is going, coloured by altitude. FOLLOW A PLANE Tap a plane, or the follow button, and the camera flies to it and stays with it. Tap again to hop to the next one. Choose Chase to fly behind it or Orbit to circle it slowly. Drag the map to let go. A REAL 3D MAP Standard, Hybrid and Satellite styles with realistic terrain and buildings. Pinch to zoom, twist to rotate, drag with two fingers to tilt. WHO IS THAT? Callsign, airline, origin and destination, aircraft type and registration appear for the plane you follow, with its route drawn on the map. The Nearby Aircraft list shows everything in range, nearest first. YOUR FILTERS Show everything, only arrivals and departures below 10,000 ft, or only the traffic passing overhead at cruise. Switch callsign labels, ground traffic and airport labels on or off. HOME AND SEARCH One search on first launch sets your home. Make any view your Home later, save favourite views, and jump back with one tap. ONE PRICE, NOTHING ELSE Fast refresh is included. No account, no ads, no subscription. DATA Live aircraft data © adsb.lol contributors, published under the Open Database License (ODbL). Routes and aircraft details by adsbdb. Coverage depends on volunteer receivers: cities are dense, oceans and remote regions can be empty. Not for navigation. Airspace Live remembers where you left off and runs entirely on your device. Also available for Apple TV.
