flight-tracker
ActiveTool of The Stall
Real-time global flight positions via OpenSky Network ADS-B. icao24 mode: locate any aircraft by its 6-hex transponder code — returns altitude (ft), speed (kts), heading, vertical rate, squawk. callsign mode: find a flight by ICAO callsign (e.g. 'AAL123', 'UAL456') across CONUS or globally. area mode: all flights near an airport (IATA code) or within a lat/lon bounding box — returns up to 50 flights sorted by altitude. No API key. Coverage: US/Europe near-complete, oceans partial.
