X Plane 11

@paulk  I'm running this at the moment. https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/49749-livetraffic/

 

It's not great but it's better than nothing.  It reads from several free data sources and seems to have a 5-10 seconds delay if you are watching in-game compared to the source (https://opensky-network.org/network/explorer).  You can see the planes in the sky with name tags which (I've removed so they don't show) the other planes are animated (once you've downloaded and installed the separate plane package) but once they've landed they don't taxi to the gates which apparently they do in WT3.

 

You must follow the full instructions otherwise you will have the planes disappearing half-way into the runway like I had at first.

 

I created the video below to show a flight from Liverpool to Manchester via Jodrell Bank and on this you can see Live Traffic in action.  One is an overfly as I approach Jodrell Bank (4:38), the other is actually landing at Manchester Airport as I fly past (6:50).

 

 

I've read people talking about World Traffic and how good it is, certainly it looks good on the videos, but it apparently has an FPS hit.

Thanks for info and the video. I will

investigate into this a little further.
