Look up. Then look at your desk.
Farwing hears the aircraft over your home with its own receiver, adds every flight around you from the Farwing network, and tells you the story of each one.
How it works
Two ways to see the sky.
A receiver on your desk for the planes above you, and a network for everything else.
Its own ADS-B receiver
Aircraft broadcast who they are, where they are, how high and how fast, many times a second. The receiver and antenna inside Farwing pick those signals up directly from the planes over your home. It keeps working even when your internet doesn't.
Heard by your FarwingThe Farwing network
Over the internet, the Farwing network adds what one receiver can't hear: every flight around you and beyond the horizon, routes, airlines and airports around the world, the weather, and the stories behind the aircraft. Every Farwing adds what it hears, so the network gets better with every one sold.
From the Farwing networkThe flight overhead
The moment it passes, you know.
The flight, the airline and the aircraft. Where it came from, where it's going, how high, how fast and how far along.
Airports
Your airports. Live.
Arrivals and departures for up to three airports you choose, the way the terminal shows them, and which runways are in use today.
Live map
The whole sky around you.
Gold planes are the ones your Farwing heard itself. The rest stream in live from the Farwing network, day and night.
HDMI out
Take the sky to the big screen.
Farwing has an HDMI output. Connect it to a monitor or a big-screen TV and every page fills the room, from the flight overhead to the live map.
Aircraft profiles
Meet the plane overhead.
Each profile is built around one remarkable fact about that aircraft, proved with a picture, beside a photo of the plane itself.
Alerts
Emergencies, the moment they happen.
When a plane near you declares an emergency, Farwing shows who it is, where it is, and what the code means. Every alert is kept in your logbook.
On this day
Aviation history, on the day it happened.
Every day brings a first flight, a record or a milestone from aviation and spaceflight, with the photograph to match.
Logbook
Your sky, remembered.
Every type, airline and tail number your Farwing has heard, your first sightings, and your records: closest, highest, fastest. No phone app keeps a history of your own sky.
Through the day
From first light to last flight.
A morning summary of what flew over in the night, and a calm world clock when the room is quiet. Farwing dims after dark and can sleep on a schedule.
Just getting started
It grows with every update.
Farwing gets new pages and new data over the air.
Hundreds of data points
As Farwing matures, the network will bring hundreds of kinds of aviation data to your desk: airlines, airports, routes, fleets, weather along the way and the history behind it all.
On the web
A Farwing website is planned to match the box, so you can explore the same sky and stories from any computer.
In your pocket
A Farwing mobile app is planned too, with your logbook and the flights around you wherever you are.
