planeTALK | Philip PLANTHOLT, VP Flightradar24 "The Facebook of Aviation" (Subtitles available)

"We receive Crash-Calls"
Just minutes after a serious aircraft incident anywhere in the world, his cell phone rings first. At the other end of the line, affected airlines, ministries, or even intelligence agencies call in.
The common interest is in the last flight data captured by the 30,000 - primarily private - flight trackers. Long before the flight recorders can be found and analyzed.
We talk to Philip Plantholt from Munich, who has been with Flightradar24 in Stockholm for seven years.
"The Facebook of aviation" was once the Wall Street Journal's headline about the Swedish radar spotter service Flightradar24. In 2006, two former plane spotters came up with the idea of setting up a network of radio receivers - in private homes - they capture all aircraft movements worldwide and display them in real-time on a digital map.
Not only aviation fans know and appreciate the service of Flightradar24 from Stockholm. It has become a convenience product of travel.
Join me for an informative and entertaining talk, with lots of questions from Clubhouse callers.

Erzählt doch mal was darüber, wie die Flightradar App erst in einer zusätzlichen Pro Version verfügbar war und die Macher dann eine Zeit später, weil sie den Hals nicht vollkriegen konnten, alle Pro User rausgekickt und ein Abomodell eingeführt haben.

[@powermonkey7042]

@@chrp90 es geht nicht um die Summe, es geht um die Vorgehensweise. Was daran lustig sein soll, kann ich nicht erkennen.
