FlightAware

aeroapi

Flight status, delays and gates. Asked beside the web search when a question needs it, and served first with the time it was read.

TravelGrounder’s key

How it works

  1. You search as usual, over HTTP or MCP, and Grounder searches the web.
  2. For a question about right now that FlightAware can answer, Grounder also asks FlightAware, beside the web search.
  3. The answer from FlightAware is served first, with the time it was read, and routing.live_calls lists it.

Grounder holds a key for FlightAware and reads it with that.

Using it

Ask the way you would ask any search. Grounder asks FlightAware when the question needs what the source holds.
