FlightAware Expands Coverage, Enacts Engine Start-to-Stop Alerts

Flight tracking provider FlightAware announced two big coups this past October. The company is now able to track aircraft anywhere in the world from engine start to shut down, including taxi coverage.

The idea behind the ground tracking was to eliminate the excessive calls received by FBOs from flight departments, family, and executive staff asking for the status of aircraft, crew, and passengers. It also reduces the crew distraction in the cockpit during critical start-up, taxi and shutdown procedures
