How many aircraft fly near my area?

The following chart demonstrates local air traffic around your area – total flights per day for the month. The number and type of flights over your location can vary, even on different days, which is driven primarily by wind direction and hence the operating mode of the airport – the flow.

You can easily determine if an aircraft is overflying your area by looking for the tail, if you can see the tail, chances are the aircraft is too far away from you to be counted in our statistics:

Mousing over the chart will give you detailed figures. Historical flights from previous months are available via a drop-down. The data is refreshed monthly with new data available typically in the middle of each month. Please keep this in mind as the most recent datasets may only be partially complete.
