Huh ... I use that site. There's PG and pltcl code behind it?
Cool!
Heh, I didn't realize you were a TCL fan.
They've been heavy PG users from the start. Eventually PG had trouble
keeping up with the in-flight tracking so they created Speed Tables [1].
And Karl (one of the founders) is a well known TCL contributor[2].
When it comes to sheer geek factor though, I think the
multilateration[3] stuff they're doing with their ADS-B network is a
really cool data application. It's basically a form of "reverse GPS" for
tracking aircraft.
