New aircraft tracking sites

FR24 performs much better than Flightaware around my area. In general FR24 is the best site for Europe.

That doesn’t look like a significant sample size

A deeper analysis would be interesting if anyone is bored and wants to see which tracking site has the bigger pp.

If one really cares, one can create an aggregate site that fetches information from all for aforementioned sites. I bet government agencies are already doing that.

You can look at any of my longer flights; it’s the same result. FR24 is plus or minus a few miles laterally.

What is pp?

At least here in the US that’s correct. In our flying club we use it to track our fleet. Works a treat, only thing is it doesn’t normally show ground movements and – very rarely – doesn’t show a flight at all. No idea how that happens, but it does. FYI: our fleet is of course ADS-B in/out equipped.
