More nerdness from motomk!

I give you flying machine watching!

Only a few aeroplanes will appear as it depends whether there is a ground station feed nearby. For example one website has Perth and the other does not.
It also depends what equipment is on the aircraft. Most of the newer ones have the right stuff on board.

I haven't found trains yet!

Haha i love it. . My brother works the boats off barrow island and every now and then i'll give him a text with his coordinates. Haven't told him how i know yet so it freaks the sh-t out of him. He's determined one of his mates on board is letting me know. . Quite interesting looking at the air traffic in the area too. Cheers motomk
