Airport Monitor
Welcome to AirportMonitor™, John Wayne Airport’s (SNA)
Internet flight tracking system. This system allows you to watch
the movement of flights and air traffic patterns within the Orange
County region.
Now even better and easier to use, as we have expanded the functions
of the AirportMonitor™.
FEATURES:
- Pause/Resume: You can now pause the
flight activity, click on flights in pause mode to see who they
are, then resume where you left off, (works in both live and
replay mode) – useful for taking the time to find the flight
you want at your own pace
- Fast Forward in replay mode lets
you choose faster replay speeds, to view the flight you want
quicker
- Helicopter identification – some
helicopters, depending on their speed and flight behavior, will
be identified by a black helicopter icon (helicopters that are
flying like airplanes may still be identified by a black airplane
icon).
- Online help page -
frequently asked questions and topics are now conveniently located
right on the application.

Aircraft Icons
The icons are larger than the aircraft they represent and
are uniform regardless of the actual size of the aircraft.
Please be aware that there is vertical separation between intersecting
aircraft which cannot be viewed on a two dimensional display.
