Additional features include the ability to observe current weather and its potential impact on flights, see current aircraft speed and altitude, search by airports, cities, or airline and flight number. FlightTracks revolutionary offline mode saves last known flight information every five minutes for later viewing anytime, even while on an airplane or outside cell coverage.
"Seeing the airplane on the map with real-time weather radar allows users to predict flight delays and track flights with incredible accuracy," Mr. Kazez said.
FlightTrack accesses FlightView, a software service used by the U.S. Government, airlines, airports and other professional air transportation organizations. "The FlightTrack application is another way that customers can ease the stress of traveling," said Mike Benjamin, CEO of FlightView. "Having this information in the palm of their hand helps them plan and travel without all the anxiety."
FlightTrack for iPhone and iPod touch requires OS X iPhone 2.1 or later. It is immediately available and priced at US$4.99.Recent Headlines
