[Scan-DC] Straying from topic - aircraft in flight website

[michael rumberg]

there are quite a few of these websites - a simple google search on "flight tracking" will give a plethora of such sites.  very cool is 3D flight tracking from Google -which overlays the flight path on GoogleEarth where you can see static pictures of what the plane is actually flying over.

> There used to be a website for tracking aircraft in flight... before 9/11 it was in real-time or close to it - there were some changes made to it because of that - does anyone know if it's still around?  And if so, what is the URL?  I found flightaware.com but I thought there was another one... thanks.
