Airlines & Airports
Then, the app then proceeds to get a list of the airports and airlines. It does so by using the
following two URLs:
http://www.flightradar24.com/_json/airports.php
http://www.flightradar24.com/_json/airlines.php


Zones
To prevent longer loading times, the application does not load all the aircraft data all at once. It
only gets the necessary information that it needs for a user's location. Therefore, the earth is
divided into zones. The app gets all the zones from this URL:
http://www.flightradar24.com/js/zones.js.php

Aircraft data
http://krk.fr24.com/zones/na_ne_all.json

It is possible to get more information for a specific aircraft using this API:
