We may be out in the boonies, but we’re along the flight path to the Continent (just ask that nice Mr Hitler). Traffic is high and lately I feel sure we’ve heard an uptick.
Enter Uncle B, who’s a bit of a plane geek. He turned me on to a site called Flight Radar 24. It tracks every plane in the sky. Click one, and it tells you the registration, the destination, all sorts of neat flight information.
If you hear one go over and it ain’t on the map, that’s military. We get a lot of that, too.
When you hit that link, if the map isn’t showing your part of the world, drag the screen until it is. Next time, it will remember.
I love the flight arc of planes flying the Atlantic. They always go up and over, like somebody throwing darts.
