WHAT PLANE IS FLYING OVER GUARULHOS?
Wondering what plane is that, overhead right now? Every aircraft over Guarulhos broadcasting ADS-B appears on the scope above at its true position — airliners, freighters, helicopters, trainers, and the occasional mystery pigeon with no flight plan on file.
Guarulhos sits practically under the circuit at São Paulo/Guarulhos–Governor André Franco Montoro International Airport — expect aircraft low, close and slowing down, with the interesting part of the flight happening right overhead. A city of 1.2 million keeps its sky busy from first departures to the late freight.
Most traffic over Guarulhos is working the nearby airports: São Paulo/Guarulhos–Governor André Franco Montoro International Airport (SBGR), 4 NM away; Campo de Marte Airport (SBMT), 6 NM away; Congonhas–Deputado Freitas Nobre Airport (SBSP), 12 NM away. Arrivals and departures from these fields cross the area daily, along with overflights riding the airways above.
The scope names what deserves naming: military movements, air ambulances, coastguard and rescue aircraft, warbirds, AWACS and tankers, and the occasional whale-shaped oddball all wear their own badges.
