How it works
Raw position broadcasts, converted into clean flight segments.
FlightTrace organizes aircraft position broadcasts (ADS-B) into flight records and compares activity with each company's history. The data shows what was observed; interpretation stays with you.
- Capture
Raw ADS-B position broadcasts are captured for a defined universe of corporate aircraft.
- Organize
That data is converted into clean flight segments — departure, arrival, and date — then organized into company and aircraft histories.
- Compare
Highlight changes against each company's past activity, then explore by company, aircraft, route, airport, or date.
Baseline Indicators
Baseline-relative context layered onto flight activity history.
Review changes in flight counts, shared airport stays, arrival patterns, and weekend activity against each company's available history.
Fleet Activity Surge
Company flight activity well above its normal range.
28 flights in 7 days · 3.5× the 24-month median · all 3 tracked aircraft active
Location Clusters
Repeated arrivals at one airport, compared with the company's previous arrivals there.
3 arrivals at Airport X in 30d · prior 30d high: 1 · 3 prior landing-days on record
Weekend Activity
Weekend flight counts well above the company's usual range.
11 flights · 2.2× 24mo company median weekend · typically ~5 on weekends · 4/4 jets active
Platform
Study a company, corroborate a thesis, or get alerted.
Use FlightTrace as a company research workspace, an anomaly feed, an alert system, or an event-study surface — whether you're exploring a company's behavior or checking it against something you're already investigating.

Company Analysis
Every company, measured against its own history.
The place to dig in when a company is already on your radar. Review its flight activity in one place — daily and weekly charts, baseline-relative indicators, map views, and the underlying flight segments behind each pattern. Move from Fleet Convergence, Activity Surges, Location Clusters, and Weekend Activity into route-level detail, location history, and fleet patterns over time.
Anomaly Feed
Daily activity that stands out.
Review baseline-relative indicators across every tracked company, or narrow the feed by sector, industry, company, and indicator type. Each row explains why the activity stands out against the company's own history.
