Can you make it so "exit cockpit" navigates to a route rather than execute a back on the browser, as it takes me back to the hacker news page when I push it.

Also took me about 5 minutes to find the cockpit view button after I'd selected a flight but that might be a me problem :)

Same here. Should be more prominent for a brand new feature!

Exit Cockpit disabled; No parachutes available

Thank you for the suggestion and I just modified that behavior.

i came here to comment on the exit=back too

and i'd like metric measurement too

This is so cool. But on iOS, clicking the plane flashes the mini modal/popup but the it immediately disappears. There no way, on touch, to keep it open long enough to click a cockpit view button, assuming there is one.

I was able to do it on my iPhone. 1) Click on a plane on the map. 2) Click on "menu" at the bottom. 3) Scroll down to the bottom of info window and click on "cockpit."

Whoa! That was it. I expected a more prominent button for cockpit. I actually just thought those were labels. Thanks big time.

Any chance of adding real-time sky and weather effects, using satellite imagery and weather data?

It's really cool. I'm a little unsure if the website is overloaded or my browser is not rendering it properly. If I zoom in on an area and try to click on a plane in flight, sometimes I can select a plane, but sometimes I can't. Even for a plane that I was able to select a few seconds before, if I click away and try to click again, it won't select.

You need to click on the plane icon, not the label.

Doesn't seem to work for me. I just get star field displays no matter what I do.

Same.

same

Gorgeous! I can search flights at LAX but I don't see the smaller airports around it like SNA or LGB listed. Any chance those could be added?

Also, is there by chance a way to do historical flights?

I just added smaller airport. (for now I turned off airport overlay as default since it get a little clutterd but you can turn it on. or you can search the airport code in search bar)

Thank you!
