Air Traffic over a 24-hour Period
 
This video, only a bit over 1 minute long, is a fascinating look at all commercial air traffic over a 24-hour period. Just scroll down slightly below the "ads" at the top to the video. With daylight beginning in Australia and moving across the world. Fascinating, I think.

That is great.

I watched it the first time and it was amazing how the air traffic completely covered Europe.

The next time I watched it, it played in fast forward for some reason, and it was even better then. I could see the flow and how it emptied Europe, and filled the US, emptied the US and filled Europe.

Great video.

It seems from that clip that the best time to fly is at night. There are less planes in the sky as night falls in an area. Nice clip TY

Seems you only have to be at the airport at 4 o'clock in the morning to get to Halifax. :wobbly:


VERY interesting indeed! No question people like to fly during the day. Like CP, I watched it a number of times concentrating on one continent at a time. Very cool DB. :thumb:
