    This is a great website to see what airplanes are flying over your house. Southwest flies over all the time, like sometimes right smack over, they've very distinctive underbelly colors. I own the airspace they sometimes fly over, so I'll have to start billing them. The air over my property extending outward into the universe is mine, so I'm looking to start my own air force to defend it. Who wants to enlist? It pays a dollar a month and you have to pluck dandelions in the summer, which is also your chow. You also need your own space craft.

    I've bought stuff on Amazon, then with the tracking number, have watched the plane with my stuff aboard take off and land.

    That’s cool; I just tried it. The alerts are also interesting.

    I like to look at the polar regions and imagine those intrepid souls, also the great circle routes. And the pictures of the planes, some of which are really cool, like some of the airliners serving LAX regularly, their photos appear to have been snapped from the control tower, because they look they're landing in the parking lot of an In 'N' Out Burger. That burger joint is a popular spot for plane watching, there's a nearby runway and lots of YouTubes. You may also see "blocked" which is aircraft like military or heads of state.

    I intentionally avoid the TV show called... "Why Planes Crash."

    I had no problem flying in military planes while in the Air Force, but I do have a lot of anxiety getting into civilian planes and flying. I know the rigorous maintenance and phase docks the military planes go through. Civilians planes just turn and burn.
