🛩️ Plane Spotting: discover and follow aircraft live
⏪ Flight Replays: go back up to 48 hours and replay the skies
🚨 Live Emergency Alerts: instantly spot aircraft squawking 7500, 7600 or 7700
The sky is moving. Now you can explore more of what’s happening in it.
Check it out on the Wingbits Map and let us know what you spot 👇

We run MLAT across 6,000+ community-hosted stations. It calculates aircraft position from the same signal reaching multiple receivers. One aircraft, many independent observations.

99% of our data arrives in under one second. We capture aircraft signals directly from the sky and run our own data layer, giving live systems lower latency than the legacy aggregator model.

We capture more than aircraft position. The Wingbits feed also carries navigation-accuracy data and TCAS resolution advisories, supporting GPS-interference detection and near-miss replay.

Our stations are locked, verified, and feed only Wingbits. That gives data buyers an independent source instead of another copy of the same shared hobbyist feed.

We use an incentive layer to improve how the network grows. It gives hosts a reason to improve their installs and add coverage where the network needs it.

Customers tell us which airports, corridors, or regions need better flight data. We grow network density around the request, and they pay when that coverage is delivered.

Our ADS-B feed includes navigation-accuracy data from aircraft. When that accuracy degrades, the data can support live detection of GPS jamming and spoofing.

Our stations deliver 60%+ better coverage per station than the passive hobbyist model, on average. The incentive layer gives hosts a reason to improve installs and add coverage where the network needs it.

We now have 6,000+ community-hosted ADS-B stations across 120+ countries. Each is locked, verified, and feeds only Wingbits. The result is an independent feed that adds coverage instead of another copy of the same hobbyist data.

9,778 collision-avoidance advisories in 30 days.
That’s one every 4.4 minutes somewhere in our coverage. Quietest day of the month: July 4, even near-misses take the holiday off.
This data is normally locked in closed industry systems. 30 days, one map:

The aircraft with the most collision-avoidance alerts in our global network last month isn’t an airliner.
It’s Tanker 184, a Dash 8 water bomber. So are the next four on the list.
This is 6 hours over Colorado’s Ferris Fire: 17 alerts, 5 tankers:

We mapped every military aircraft over the Middle East for the first two weeks of July.
The pattern tracks the war almost hour for hour.
Quiet start: ~24 in the air at once. Then Jul 9 → 64 airborne at once, the morning the ceasefire broke and the strikes started. A second surge Jul 13–14 as tankers were hit in Hormuz.

Testing Codex 5.6 Sol in ultracode mode. So far, the task has been running for 60 minutes, and the API usage thus far is $98. Hopefully the end result is worth it 😅

In June 2025, flight trackers could have called the US escalation towards Iran before a single headline broke.
US tankers had crossed the Atlantic eastbound about once a day for a month. On June 16, 21 crossed in 24 hours. Five days later, the strikes.
Tanker movements don’t lie. Headlines lag.

GPS jamming is now something you can watch happen, live.
We turned Wingbits’ network of thousands of secure, locked and verified receivers, into a real-time GPS interference dashboard. Free, public, by region.
If you want to keep track, set up an agentic routine directly from the dashboards and get notified if things change!
Worst zone last month: a Middle East corridor at 98.7% of flights reporting degraded GPS.
The Baltic: 31% around Riga.

On July 3, the day before America’s 250th birthday, a pilot did something quietly extraordinary.
He lifted off from Norwalk, Ohio in a single-engine Cessna at 6:00 AM and flew for more than six hours. Not to get anywhere: he landed 2.5 nautical miles from where he started. The whole point was the path.
Plot his ADS-B track and it appears, a full outline of the continental United States with “USA 250” lettered inside it. Roughly 800 nautical miles (1,475 km) flown as one continuous line, at ~10,000 feet, across a canvas ~145 km wide. Six hours of precise, patient hand-flying.
Here’s what makes it resonate for us: our ADS-B network picked it up independently from 4,544 position reports, every letter, every turn. When someone paints a tribute across the sky, it’s the aircraft data underneath that turns a private act of skill into something thousands of people can watch, verify, and share.
So we visualized it: the flight drawing itself, in red, white, and blue.
Happy 250th, America. 🇺🇸
