Plane Finder HD is an amazing app for anyone interested in aviation, planes, flights or air traffic control.
It's also great if you just want to know what is up there or if you want to see your friends and family in the air?
Plane Finder HD provides a real time "virtual radar" showing what is in the sky plus details such as altitude, speed, plane type etc. It's very addictive because there is so much flight movement in the sky.
Plane Finder HD provides real time information on planes and flights in the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Australia and in Southern Scandinavia. It's easy to use and is fully integrated into Google Maps.
Plane Finder HD also includes flight route information and the airline details.
It's also easy to switch between map views, satellite view and information; it even pulls in photos of the planes.
Plane Finder works by picking up ADS-B plane feeds used by all commercial planes to transmit their name, position, destination and lots more. This technology is actually faster than radar and is used in some places for air traffic control and navigation.
It's fascinating and great fun to see what's going on!

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is different about Plane Finder HD paid version?
Plane Finder HD updates in near real time whereas the free version only updates twice a day.
- What is the difference between Plane Finder for the iPhone and Plane Finder HD?
Plane Finder HD is an enhanced version of Plane Finder - our original iPhone App. Plane Finder HD is built on a whole new technology platform and includes a global map and search capabilities.
-Why does the time appear 1 hour or more out?
Airline traffic uses UTC time and is therefore different from local time.
- Why can't I see all planes?
Aircraft must be carrying ADS-B equipment. The US carriers have been slow to adopt this but usage is continuing to rise.
-It's great it's now live - Why did you remove the 5 minute delay?
All virtual radar systems operate without this now so we have followed suit.
-What if my area isn't covered? We are always on the lookout for more data feeds. Check back regularly to see if we have added your area.
-If I have Plane Plotter software can I use Plane Finder to link to it?
This is possible. Please contact support@pinkfroot.com and we can assist.
-What do the lines mean? These show the approximate flight path.
- Why do I get the odd spurious image? - We use Google image search so returned data cannot be guaranteed.
-Can I use Plane Finder for navigational purposes? Definitely not. Plane Finder must not be used for navigational purposes under any circumstances
