The airport crew have a commercial version of the program on a large
monitor on the counter. They use it to help them know when to expect
transient flights that require help with parking, fuel, etc. It also
shows weather radar, nationwide.

One of the programs that I keep open on my desktop computer and often on my
iPhone is FlightAware. As an old pilot, I like to watch the IFR (Instrument
Flight Rules) flights in and out of the local airport, and occasionally, the
progress of a flight. [VFR (Visual Flight Rules) flights do not appear.]
Today, a pilot I know is making a flight to Palm Springs, CA, with one stop in
North Texas. Here is a screen shot of the second leg of his flight. He is
cruising at 24,000 feet at 269 mph.
