Watch live air traffic worldwide with flightradar24

Link: http://www.flightradar24.com/

I just came across this interesting website: http://www.flightradar24.com/ Here you can watch live air traffic. I find this quite amazing. On top of a Google World Map little aircrafts visualize ongoing flights. The call codes are allso revealed on mouse over. You can rescale the size of the map and adjust the brigtness to either make the map or the aircraft symbols stand out more. Clicking on a plane reveals data like altitude, speed, where the flight came from and its destination. Only flights with ADS-B transponders within the reach of the companies 100 receivers worldwide are visible on the map. The map is an Javascript application and does not work too well with Internet Explorer, but much better with Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.   Watch live air traffic here!
