Interesting.

Maybe this explains the offer of "free" RadarBoxes?

The other things that spring to mind are:

1. Will it be free to use?

2. Will there be paid for and free phone apps?

3. Must one "register" to use it and provide a contact email address?

4. Has this development been done at the expense of fixing outstanding RadarBox bugs and releasing new features?  But it may explain why the "equatorial black hole" was fixed!

5. Yet another reason why RadarBox data sharing is turned on by default. 

Both Flightradar24.com and Planefinder.net are already well established.  How will AirNav differentiate itself?

My guesstimations in order:

1. No it won't.  Brandao must have lost a small fortune on Ship Trax, this will be yet another way of getting an income source to fund his lifestyle.
2. I'll bet my last penny there won't be any free apps available, all will need to be paid for.
3. I'm guessing you will have to register because of answer number 1.
4. You can bet your sweet bippy it is.
5. You've already said it.

How Air Navs attempt will differentiate itself from the rest is anyones guess.  I only hope they don't use the servers they are using now to provide the information!

Yet again Air Nav are years behind everyone else.  Ship Trax missed the boat (no pun intended) as there were already some great apps available to track ships and here we are again launching something 'new' when you have apps for Planefinder and Flight Radar24 doing a great job.

Is this latest folly the reason behind why no development has been carried out on Radarbox for the last months?

No mention of this "activity" on the AirNav Forum though there are at least two beta testers!

Still using my silhouettes 

You would think by now that they would have found some other way of displaying aircraft, what about Rod Bearden's photo silhouettes ?

They have!!   I think the basic monochrome silhouettes are only used on the Aircraft Type filter.  There are much better silhouettes used on the main displays.

I prefer Ian's.  Best there are. 

[Ian K]

They are still using them even if they are just on the filter 

[Ian K]

Thanks Mike 

[Anmer]

Threaten to sue Brandao and send Roman's "boys" around.

Seriously, didn't you once say he doesn't have your approval to use them other than for RadarBox?

[Ian K]

He has approval to use with Radarbox software, download & on CD but I reckon if I queried it he would say that, because the data is coming from Radarboxes it is all part of the same package.
Worth thinking about though.

[Anmer]

This is a new application and I suspect a Court would find in your favour, especially if this product wasn't mentioned at the time of your agreement.

But it's your call and lawyers make nearly as much money as Chelsea footballers.

Moved, not down.  Beta testing continues.

My guess is it's been deliberately removed to avoid anymore public scrutiny in advance of the formal release and price list 

I see the domain was registered in November 2010.  AirNav works fast.
