Altitude. Red on the ground, through green, teal, and blue for mid-altitudes, into violet above 40,000 feet. At a glance you can tell who just took off, who is climbing through the pattern, and who is cruising overhead.

They are inside the PHL radar radius but not landing or departing here. Passing through en route to another airport. We flag them so the numbers for PHL traffic actually reflect PHL traffic.

Click any aircraft on the map. You get its track line across the region and an altitude profile showing the climb, cruise, and descent.

A pulsing red circle indicates an emergency squawk: 7500 (hijack), 7600 (comm failure), or 7700 (general emergency). These are legally-required codes pilots set when something is wrong.

The radar shows live aircraft positions. Gate, terminal, and schedule status sit in the Board section above this one.

GPS-accurate via ADS-B, typically within 30 meters horizontally. Positions refresh every few minutes. When a signal drops (mountain terrain, certain oceanic corridors), the marker holds the last-known position instead of disappearing.
