Expedia purchased FlightTrack and all it's IP. Do you have legal permission to call it this?

@court_kizer unlikely:

In fact, the more that I think about this, the more I don't like it. I can see someone naive and inexperienced making the mistake of thinking FlightTrack might be ok, since the other app is effectively defunct, but calling it 6 is an intentional mischaracterization that fraudulently suggests continuity and association.

Hey @timroesner This looks good, but it looks very similar to the original FlightTrack app, Flight Track 5 by Mobiata that was discontinued in 2017 -- are you aiming to get that going again?

@amedeodamore Somewhat. I use the same data provider as they did and was a big fan of their app.

@timroesner Thanks Tim! I was a big fan of their app as well. How similar is yours to theirs? Before I put down £5, am curious what to expect? For example FlightTrack5 also had some data about the % of flights for any particular route/flight path that were on time vs late - etc. Just curious if these are the sorts of features you have or plan to add at some point?

@amedeodamore Just launched a big update with Push notifications, TripIt integration, and AirDrop. The on time performance per flight is on the roadmap and planned for another update.
