Ever wondered How to Track a Flight in Real Time ?

If you’ve ever looked up at a plane flying by and wondered where it’s coming from and where it’s going, it’s actually rather easy to find out. Thanks to flight tracking programs, all the information about any given flight is just a click (or tap) away. These days, many flight trackers provide real-time updates about a plane’s location, altitude, and speed, and they can be used to monitor nearly all commercial and cargo flights, and even some private and military flights, too. So if you’re curious about where your inbound flight is, or if you’d like to track the arrival of someone you’re picking up at the airport, you can use a flight tracker to keep tabs on the plane.

Radar is technically still the global standard for tracking flights, but it has many limitations numerous areas don’t have radar coverage, like the majority of the ocean. Today, flight tracking is shifting to a surveillance system called Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast, or ADS-B. Companies that track flights can use global networks of ADS-B receivers to determine the positions of flights all around the world.
