This is amazing. FYI, I believe it might be a paid feature of the flight radar app, but if you hit "AR", you get a mode where if you point it at the sky it overlays information about the planes you see onto your current camera view, there's an example here: flightradar24.com/blog/… -- It's great if you live under a major airway.

That's quite genius, I've always wanted to get into AR
I think some of this data is on the API already, but perhaps not as extenisvely
