Casper is a cool live flight tracker based on Google Maps that lets you track flights in real time. You can see actual planes coming in and out of airports color-coded by airlines. Hovering your mouse over any plane provides you with additional details such as departure airport, arrival airport, flight number, current altitude and speed.

You can also select a different map type such as satellite, terrain or hybrid and color the planes based on altitude and flight type. If there is no flight activity, you can also select a past date and time to replay activity from that time. Clicking on a plane also provides you details about the airline and a picture of the type of plane.

Right now Casper is a demo tool that only shows activity for the Amsterdam airport, but the software can be configured to any other location if the data is available.

Features:

• Track live flights on Google Maps.
• Color planes by airline, plane type or altitude.
• Mouse over on a plane to see current altitude and speed.
• No registration required.
