WHAT PLANE IS FLYING OVER JIUJIANG?
Wondering what plane is that, overhead right now? Every aircraft over Jiujiang 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.
The nearest airport of any size, Nanchang Changbei International Airport, is a good 51 NM away — so the sky over Jiujiang is mostly cruise-level overflights with nowhere local to be. A city of 1.2 million keeps its sky busy from first departures to the late freight.
Most traffic over Jiujiang is working the nearby airports: Nanchang Changbei International Airport (ZSCN), 51 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. Search any town or postcode on the main scope to centre the radar on your own location, or pop it out full-screen for a second monitor.
