Cool.

I was with a guy who had an app on his phone where you took a pic of the plane in the sky and the app somehow worked out where the plane took off from and where it was going

I was glued to that the other week with all the local goings on at Manc Airport. Was funny how once it became a matter of national security the plane disappeared off the radar haha.

I think there's an app version of this or similar that my Mrs has, makes her feel better seeing how many planes are actually up there as she can't fly without tranquillizers

I can't function without bloody tranquillizers and a shedload of other stuff!!!

Plane geeks are far worse than train spotters!

Train spotting zoom out the image to cover europe at the moment. If I was an air traffic controller I would run away!
