Taxi into Position

This is a page showing some rather more artistic representations of aircraft in motion over the United States. The researchers took the real time flight data for a 24 hour period and plotted the positions of the aircraft in flight over the US and coming to and from the US. Visually its a very attractive piece, from an aviation perspective you can see the waves of aircraft coming and going as the time zones roll by - well worth a look.Air Traffic As Seen by the FAAThe following flight pattern visualizations are the result of experiments leading to the project Celestial Mechanics by Scott Hessels and Gabriel Dunne.
