Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FlightStats at 73% against API MyCrewCare's 9%. FlightStats also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.1) and ratings volume (80K vs 34). API MyCrewCare's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
