No shady or rude comments.

Yeah mainly, although it's interesting to see some of the flights in very rural areas such as North Scotland.

[EspeonBB]

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars

[Lostie!]

[Jamie89]

This might be a dumb question but why is some of the line black and some of it purple?

[Will.]

How nice :)

Can we stop with the rude comments in here, if the thread doesn't interest you then feel free to head back to c&g

[Jamie89]

Not sure :conf:

I googled it lol, apparently it's something to do with gaps in radar coverage so one of the lines is where it was estimated/projected to be and the other is where it was tracked (I might be wrong though and I don't know which is which)

Yeah that sounds right, I guess because it's flying in such a very unknown part of earth that signalling probably isn't very strong up there.

[Jamie89]

Yeah pretty much, I don't know what program your using to track them but this is what I found (it's about 'FlightAware' but they're probably all similar?)

There are limitations in the flight-tracking data. FlightAware and Flightradar24 have gaps in radar coverage areas. That forces their computers to make assumptions about flight paths that can make a flight appear to pass over an area—North Korea, for example—when it actually skirted around it. United Flight 976 from Washington's Dulles International Airport to Dubai looks like it passes over northern Syria on FlightAware, but each day it actually skirts the Syrian border to the north and travels down the Iraq-Iran border to the Persian Gulf. Flightradar24 shows the path avoiding Syria

Ah ok, thanks for that! Quite interesting.

It must be scary if you're flying in an area were signalling is very weak.
