Love this story. I’m glad you found the app

As the maker of airloom I’m super impressed with this project and would also suggest supporting it. Nice work!

I’m glad you noticed. I’ll still look into pinch zoom for ya regardless

Can you give the iata codes for these? I can only find TMA in ForeFlight, and it looks like it’s uncontrolled airspace so there wouldn’t be anything represented in my app

Done! Use ?airport=nearme

I’ve been using them through their free api, and I got rate limited. So I’ll maybe self-host, or find a paid provider with better tiles

I’ll have to look into that when renaming this. I didn’t do any product research before, and it looks like there are bike saddles, power generators, and mattresses all with the same name .

Any good name suggestions?

Can you expand on that for me, I’m not sure I understand what you’re getting at
benlimner

Thanks I still have a lot of optimization to do before this is smooth across the board.

It’s definitely a chrome-first app at this point.

Yeah that is a good move. I’ll add this to the short list

Thanks for the note. I hear you on the zoom pain. What would be your preferred means of zooming?

Thanks for the note and follow!

I’ll have to experiment with a full 3-D globe. The only problem I foresee is the lag associated with rendering the thousands of global flights all at once.

No glitch. It’s purposefully limited upon initial load. Adjust the search radius to increase your view range

There’s a bug where airspace doesn’t like to load after searching for an airport. I’m working on that.

Try loading airspace on one of the default random airports & let me know if it still doesn’t work for you

Maybe this will be something you look at to review interesting flights, or near misses?

I’ll work on adding a ‘near me’ direct link. I totally missed that feature so thanks for mentioning it.

Thanks for also pointing out the direct link to airport bug.

I’m planning on furthering the deep link capabilities so you can save other settings.

The premium that I’m planning will have more robust ability to save settings presets.

Thanks for the note. I’m actively chasing down both of these.

The scale change one will be easy to sort out. The black one is a little harder, sometimes the adsb data comes in corrupted.
