Live Internet Airport Monitor

http://www4.passur.com/msy.html

I know this has been covered here before, but not recently.

The Airport Monitor applet is just too cool. To be able to watch aircraft
coming and going, live, on a map of New Orleans, was science fiction until
not long ago.

I especially like being able to right click on the "target" to see what type
of aircraft it is. Watching a Cherokee fly out over the lake, as it's
really happening, is (to me, anyway) amazing.

Although not "real time", I like to run the Airport Monitor in replay
mode, which gives you the flight number, origin, and destination, and
match it up with a LiveAtc.net archive from the same time.

There about a dozen airports that can be monitored:

Then match both of those up with http://www.flightaware.com and
you'll see the exact route the aircraft takes (including those elusive
Janet 732s), and you're in for a good time.

Got the link from friends few weeks ago, altered date and time... and
found our little aircraft flying overhead JFK during our recent ferry
flight from FL to Europe. Flight info, speed, alt, reg, dep, dest, etc.
- everything was there! I almost couldn't believe it :-). "Taped" it
now on screen with Hypercam as some kind of a "souvenir" ;-).
