Post by mountainman »

Can anyone Track this for me online?

British Airways 203 from London to Detroit?

Thanks... I can't seem to find a good tracker online.

Here's another one Brandon:

http://www.flytecomm.com/cgi-bin/trackflight

It's pretty much dead on. I was tracking a flight from Detriot to Champaign and the site told me it was at about 3000ft, 220kts and eta was a couple of minutes. I step outside and it's passing over my place. Not too shabby. :thumb:

That's pretty cool.

I guess my mom was having trouble with it earlier since it was just leaving the UK.

Not sure.

Thanks for the great links, guys!!

That's what I was thinking too. Next you will be able to get the passenger lists.

Looks like only for US and Canada.

They guard Passenger lists with their life, but give out exact locations...Ok Mohammed Bin Osama Al Burundi wait on this spot and when I say...pull the trigger.

I would say that Flight tracking would be more damaging then knowing who was on a flight, and they guard that info carefully.

I think both are pretty useless compared to what they are capable of doing.

This place always gives me a good chuckle.

Either that, or my dad came over and saw his grandson he hasn't seen in 5 weeks.

One of the two.
