Hey PH! I'm Hao, the maker of Flight-Viz. I built this because I fly a lot and always wanted a flight tracker that felt more immersive than flat map views. The 3D globe with planes actually moving is weirdly mesmerizing — I've caught myself just watching transatlantic flights for way too long. Some things I'm proud of technically: - All aircraft icons are drawn purely in the fragment shader using signed distance fields — no textures, 5 different shapes (jet, cargo, prop, helicopter, military), infinitely scalable Would love to hear what features would make this most useful for you. Thinking about adding personal flight logs, route alerts, and historical playback. Try it: https://flight-viz.com
