A planned mobile app for identifying aircraft overhead, tracing their routes, and predicting visible ISS passes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The proposed workflow combines aircraft signals from three open receiver networks, removes duplicates using each aircraft’s ICAO address, and resolves routes against open airline schedule data. A selected flight is intended to show a credited photograph of the actual airframe, while ISS passes are calculated on-device using public orbital elements and the sun’s position. The page also specifies six languages and says location requests are optional.
