    hasdjkshad.jpgIs this showing the flight path? Looks like it positioned on LIFFY, could be wrong though!?

    They dont give the flightplan on it because theres no way of them pulling it from the CFMU to display it to you, but yes that is correct Jammy

    And why doesnt it show any of the USA traffic. There is only like 30 planes showing now over USA. I can guaranteee at least 1000 more would be in the sky right now!!!

    I heard something mentioned on the radio about that a while ago, apparently its an anti-terrorism measure.

    I love radarvirtuel but I keep getting a warning screen flashing up on laptop telling me something like "script running could cause my computer to slow up or become unstable" anyone else getting this or similar and how do I get around it?

    Ei7dar.com used to be 3 or 4 minutes ahead of Radarvirtuel but now since they joined up with Radarvirtuel they are the same. I always used Ei7dar.com before and am a bit disappointed that i don't have the choice between the 2. Still its a great service and i know its a security thing to have it delayed by 5 mins or so.

    out of one day using my laptop at work had the scanner and radarvirtuel open and they seemed spot on the second

    Bizarre, according RadarVirtuel I seem to be watching EIN 169 flying backwards across North Dublin :confused:

    If its any use to anybody, on www.marinetraffic.com as well as showing all ships around Irish waters, a radar track of the SAR helicopters are visible when they are airbourne.

    What's happened with Radarvirtuel? It no longer appears to be showing aircraft over Ireland!

    It's been my hobby for the past year, so I hope this is just a temporary glitch. Especially as I recently donated €20 to the website owner!

    I know this thread is old but ah well.
    Anyone still using radar virtuel and know why it doesnt show aircraft over ireland?
    Or anyone have any other websites like this or better ?
    Only really look at these websites sometimes and only really look for interesting planes or fllights :)

    http://www.planefinder.net


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭TPMP

    Only thing i find wrong with planefinder is the blue tab saying we are now on iphone stays in the middle of the screen

    Radar virtuel is really cool. I especially like it when the weather is clear, and I have the laptop beside me, and the binoculars so im lookin out at the aircraft..

    Not bad, it actually shows a proper silhouette of the aircraft which is cool but its missing loads of flights which are showing up on the planefinder.net site.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,513 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Yeh i was surprised to see so little flights on it aswell.

    Has any one got hold of SBS-1 ADS-B receiver and presently using it?

    http://www.javiation.co.uk/sbs-1.html

    I wonder would/does it pick up Helis and small planes?

    I'd like to see the Coastguard Rescue 117 118 119 etc.

    Or with Virtual radar, Atlas Flight Tracker would that pick up the Rescue Heli?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.
