Live Map

Live Map shows active FlyHub traffic on a world map. Use it to watch your own flights and other visible pilots.

​
What Live Map shows

Live Map can show:
  • Free Flight traffic.
  • Career traffic.
  • Online tracked flights.
  • Offline/manual flights with synthetic progress.
  • Route lines.
  • Flight trajectories.
  • Pilot cards.
  • Network badges when detected.

​
Traffic filters

The header lets you toggle:
  • Free Flight traffic.
  • Career traffic.
The counter shows how many flights are shown out of the active total. If the map is reconnecting, the counter may show the last known traffic count. When no flight is selected, you can search. Search can match:
  • Callsign.
  • Airline ICAO.
  • Pilot name.
Select a result to focus that flight on the map.

​
Selecting a flight

Click a plane marker to select it. The selected flight card can show:
  • Airline logo or ICAO.
  • Callsign.
  • Aircraft type.
  • Historical badge when relevant.
  • Origin and destination.
  • Progress bar.
  • Nautical miles flown.
  • Nautical miles remaining.
  • Pilot name and avatar.
  • Tier label.
  • Network banner when VATSIM or IVAO is detected.
Click the map background or close button to clear the selected flight.

​
Online flights

Online flights use recent simulator telemetry. They show:
  • Current position.
  • Heading.
  • Route progress.
  • Trajectory when enough points exist.
  • OFP route and waypoint labels when available.
If telemetry becomes stale, the flight may disappear from the map until it updates again.

​
Offline flights

Offline flights can appear on Live Map using offline progress. Because there is no live simulator telemetry, FlyHub estimates the position along the planned route. Offline flights may show:
  • Offline badge.
  • Awaiting Check-In state.
  • Estimated progress.
  • Remaining distance.
  • Current phase when available.
Offline markers move differently from online telemetry markers because the position is estimated.

​
Map layers

The map can show:
  • Plane markers.
  • Callsign labels.
  • Origin and destination dots.
  • Route line.
  • Actual or estimated trajectory.
  • OFP route and waypoint labels.
The map style follows light or dark mode.

​
Refresh behavior

Live Map refreshes automatically. It refreshes more often when traffic is active and less often when the page is hidden or quiet. If a selected flight disappears or becomes stale, FlyHub clears the selection.

​
Common mistakes

  • Expecting offline flights to show real telemetry.
  • Searching while a flight card is selected.
  • Assuming every active flight is public or visible.
  • Expecting a stale online flight to stay on the map forever.
