ADS-B Results
Date: Date of flight
Airports: From the top displays City, ICAO and IATA codes
Times: Displays scheduled block, actual block, take-off time
Block times are color-coded to quickly show whether the flight departed or arrived on time. Green means it was ahead of schedule, while red indicates a delay.
Logger typically uses actual times from the ADS-B network. However, if this data is missing, Logger substitutes estimated times instead. These estimated times are marked with an "E"
At the bottom of each result, you’ll find additional details such as the total block time, flight distance, flight number, callsign, aircraft registration, and aircraft type.
Once you’ve reviewed the details, you can easily copy them into your flight log with a single tap. Logger will even create new aircraft types and registrations in your database automatically if they’re not already there.
ADS-B Credit
Each query to the ADS-B network uses one credit. When you sign up, you’ll receive 100 free credits to get started.
If you need more, additional credits can be purchased for a small fee.
You can check your remaining credits, account status, and access the credit store right at the top of the ADS-B interface.
