Hi there, thanks for developing this software @derhuerst.

While investigating how this API works, I found this message:

The contents of this file and all derived data are the property of Flightradar24 AB for use exclusively by its products and applications. Using, modifying or redistributing the data without the prior written permission of Flightradar24 AB is not allowed and may result in prosecutions.

I planned to use FR24 data to enrich information in my platform (feature in development yet). The point is that using this software could make you waste too much money 💸 .

It is perfect for small local tests (and enough).

Also, I contacted FR24 for asking permission for using their data. This is their response:

Thank you for contacting us.

You're right that it's not permitted to scrape our website for integration into other tools - thank you for taking note of this.

We are in the process of developing an API, which should be available towards the end of the year. Please keep an eye on our website for further details.

So be careful guys 😕
