Any of you who have been conned by the online flight tracking from your carrier that says “on time” when you log in two hours before your flight, only to find out when you arrive at the airport that the flight is actually hours behind schedule now have a choice. This post summarizes the benefits of FlightAware – which has no interest in lying to you about the flight schedule. In addition to tracking flights, there are a few other interesting things provided by the website that are quite useless, but could be entertaining. These include many pictures of planes, squawks about the aviation in the news (which can actually be a little disturbing), and tracking the Space Shuttle on its trips.
