Real Radar - Boston Logan KBOS

Postby JerryKGSP » Wed Apr 23, 2003 6:44 pm

If you go to http://www4.passur.com/bos.html/ you can watch real air traffic at Logan.  It is delayed from real time for a few mintues for security.  You can see arriving A/C, departing A/C, Transition Airspace A/C and if you click on a particular A/C it will show what type of A/C it is and the FL.  You can follow it all the way down to 100 feet.  You can view the airport from 4 to 90 miles.  At a peak period this afternoon, I counted 67 A/C in a 90 mile radius with 18 entering a flight path for landing and 11 that had departed!  You will need high speed internet access to view this.  Thought some simmers would enjoy seeing this and comparing the FL levels and paths to FS02.

For some reason when you click on the above sight it goes to the Mass home page which is a pay sight for this kind of thing.  However, if you do a direct search for the above link from a search engine like Google it will take you to the Boston sight free.

To get the actual page he ment, change the address from /bos.html/ to just /bos.html, without the end slash, that is what was causing the prob. Also, if you replace BOS with LAX you get the Los Angelas airport info, not sure on others, tried Dallas-Ft. Worth International, no radar there, pissed me off, didn't even include my home airport  >:( Thanks for the site though  ;D :D ;)

Over the weekend, I used this site, as well as two others I am quite familiar with to watch the flights on radar in one window, on a live controllable webcam on the other, and listen to ATC in yet a third.  (I'm currently taking applications for the position of "friends", if anyone is interested.  lol)  It's a totally different experience.
Great edit, Bob.
