Randy Cassingham's Bonzer Web Sites of the Week: Recognizing Interesting Sites that are Beyond the Microsoft/AOL-Time Warner/Media Megalith

FlightAware

"A free flight tracker that will change what you think about live flight tracking and aviation information," the site says. If you're waiting for grandma to arrive, you can watch her flight (flight number, location, track, altitude, and speed) all the way from her home airport to yours. You can view airport activity in real-time to see flights due to arrive or depart now and in the near future. If you're a pilot there are a number of time-savers, such as viewing the recent history of IFR routes between two airports (you might as well file that route, since you're probably going to get it anyway!) You can even get history information on flights going back months (free) or years (paid). (EK)
