βοΈ Aircraft Spotter
Track aircraft near you in real-time using the OpenSky Network. Your position is used to calculate distances to nearby flights.
π Your Position
The app uses your browser's geolocation to find your position automatically. You can also set a default position in Settings.
πΊοΈ The Map
The map shows your position (blue dot) and a dashed circle showing your search radius. Pan and zoom to explore freely.
π Watchlist
Add aircraft patterns (like "C17" for military transports) or specific callsigns to your watchlist. You'll get notifications when matching aircraft fly nearby!
π‘ Notifications
Browser notifications alert you when watchlisted aircraft enter your range. The website must remain open - notifications only work while the page is active in your browser tab.
βοΈ Settings
Adjust search radius (10-200 km), set default coordinates, and customize when notifications are enabled.
