Screenshots

★★★★  While other flight trackers are useless, this app at least knows what's going on for the most part. One of the other flight tracking apps showed my wife's flight landing when it hadn't taken off yet. Flight Hero Pro at least knew there had been a delay and adjusted the info. My only concern is, sometimes the displayed flight details need to be refreshed several times to be current.
