Thought I'd create a thread for sites you might come across or know of, that could be of interest to others.
I'll start it off with a couple of well known sites but that might be new to some. Flight Tracker, which shows air traffic world wide in real time (ish) and if you're a plane spotter (complete with flying jacket style anorak) will be fascinating. If you're willing to spend a few quid you lose the adverts and get access to a 3D view from the air, which can be very 'train spotter' like. (I've spent many an hour stacked over Peebles waiting for a landing slot at Edinburgh.)

There's also one for marine traffic, yes .. ship spotting. Really quite useful if you live on the coast and you have a Sou'wester Anorak.
