Just click on 'Filter' option on the left panel of FR24 and input the airline code eg UAE for emirates, KQ, ETH etc. Eg using the filter, i can see that 77 emirates planes are currently in the air.

Most, if not all. light aircraft / helicopters operating from Wilson are also invisible to Flightradar24 for the same reason. Thanks

Recommendations adopted by ICAO members include encouraging carriers "to use existing equipment and procedures to the extent possible to support flight tracking." http://online.wsj.com/ne...4579560962991371096.html"There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

The U.S. agency that investigates air crashes on Thursday called for lithium-ion batteries on Boeing's 787 Dreamliners to undergo more testing to ensure they are safe. The National Transportation Safety Board urged the Federal Aviation Administration to develop better tests for the uncontrolled overheating that led to a battery fire on a Dreamliner in 2013, require Boeing to conduct the tests, and check whether 787s, and possibly other planes, need more testing to ensure their lithium batteries are safe. http://www.foxbusiness.c...ry-tests-for-boeing-787/"There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

On airports. Kigali International Airport was ranked 7th in Africa and the best in East Africa. They have been expanding and seems their efforts have paid up  Entebbe is in a class of its own  Zambia Airport  Blog"There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.
