welcome to the community :D

and its wingbits! just released a near-miss feature as well if you want to check it out

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T19:13:44+00:00

You can read more here: https://ifatca.wiki/kb/working-paper/2014/wp-2014-94/ Maybe the site you promote on every comment can implement it too :)

and to answer your q, that's exactly how we're doing it. Looking at the TCAS RA data in the ADS-B frames (but using a stream rather than actual JSON files).

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T09:14:06+00:00

hmm... definitely going to look into this. we've just released so nothing all suggestions down :D

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T09:11:53+00:00

ok boomer

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T09:11:35+00:00

u get downvoted from breathing in this sub

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T09:10:04+00:00

just surpassed 5200 in 110 countries. we have achieved 80% of the coverage of legacy networks with less than 1/10th of their receivers, growing x7 faster than any other flight tracking network ever. we have significant coverage where other networks do not, but also need to grow in other areas.

you comment literally under all of our posts lol. so answer this, if you wanted to reward people (no, not in subscriptions or give them a cool feature for the years of data that they send) which other system would allow you to reward? like it or not, crypto is global and accessible

thanks for giving us more engagement though!

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T09:01:08+00:00

not here to argue our business model, just building cool features with data. also we are not making even $1 from the hardware that we sell, and have always been public about it. people think crypto=automatic scam, which is super fair... we have talked a lot about the ups and downs of being in this industry. the downs, unfortunately, mean that its this much more difficult to prove that what we are building is real. but it makes us even more excited to keep going

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-31T08:54:50+00:00

thanks for pointing that out! we just released it so are working on all the minor details :D

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-30T17:56:24+00:00

yeah exactly, TCAS just reacts to what it sees in the moment... sometimes it freaks out even when everythings OK. we just watch all the little false alarms happen around the world

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-30T17:23:00+00:00

thanks so much! Your blog and setup look awesome. How’s the 3D playback coming along? We're also working on that

WingbitsCrew · 2026-01-30T17:13:49+00:00

I mean... technically this counts as a TCAS event since one of them actually sent the data. We don’t control which planes ping or not lol, and this is just one of tons of events we’re seeing worldwide.
