Features:
- Real-time flight tracking on an interactive map
- Color-coded aircraft markers: green (climbing), orange (descending), yellow (cruising), white (on ground)
- Detailed flight information: route, altitude, speed, registration, and aircraft type
- Search flights by callsign, airline, or registration
- Emergency flight alerts with visual indicators
- Helicopter detection and tracking
- Airline logos displayed on the map

Contrail is free with no ads. Built for anyone who has ever looked up and wondered what's flying overhead.
