Find live aircraft state vectors within a geographic bounding box (or globally)
Price: 1 credit
💡 AI Hint: Find live aircraft currently in the air within a geographic bounding box, or globally if no box is given. Provide all four bounding-box coordinates together (lamin/lamax latitude, lomin/lomax longitude) to limit results to an area; omit them all for a global snapshot. Returns one state vector per aircraft with callsign, country of registration, position (longitude/latitude), barometric and geometric altitude, on-ground flag, ground velocity, true track (heading), vertical rate, squawk code, and position source. Set ‘extended’ to also include the aircraft category. Use ‘count’ to cap how many aircraft are returned.
