Realtime Flight Tracking

[Bullaholic]

While listening to the scanner on the aircraft bands, I sometimes hear the pilots giving the flight no., for example--"American 431", etc. I them plug them into the following site and invariably they appear on the tracking map right around my town. Pretty neat site if you are picking someone up at a airport.

www.flightaware.com is also good. It shows a real time map of where the flight is. We were watching one of my moms flights to lubbock and we watched it make a huge u-turn and come back to Dallas
