Watch me fly


I'm not sure if it's curiosity, paranoia, concern, interest or what, but I've been increasingly tracking the flights of loved ones, particularly my wife, watching their progress from take off to landing. I'm not sure if it's the healthiest thing to do for someone slightly obsessed with flying, but it's a pretty interesting distraction for a slow day at the office. You can track any flight any time, anywhere in the world. A lot of airlines have flight trackers on their websites, but the best service I've seen is flightaware.com. It takes a bit of fumbling around to get it down, but the level of precision, detail and information available is pretty incredible. Check it out!
