Everything flying overhead — live on your desk.
Short (about 40 words)
WingsAbove is a desk panel that shows every aircraft flying over you in real time — a glowing radar over a real map, then the plane itself in its actual airline paint, with route, altitude and speed. It needs Wi-Fi, not an antenna.
Long (about 100 words)
WingsAbove is a desktop display that turns the sky above you into something you can watch. A glowing radar sweeps over a real map of your area, showing every aircraft nearby. Tap one and it opens a full card — the airline's actual livery, aircraft type, route, altitude and speed — and you can follow it across a live map. It also runs an arrivals board for any airport in the world, keeps a logbook of what has flown over, and can stream its own screen over Wi-Fi. Unlike hobbyist flight-tracking builds, it needs no ADS-B receiver or antenna: it works anywhere there's Wi-Fi.

What makes it different
- No receiver, no antenna, no setup. Hobbyist flight trackers need an ADS-B receiver and a rooftop antenna. WingsAbove plugs into USB-C and works anywhere with Wi-Fi.
- Real airline liveries. The plane on screen wears the operator's actual paint, not a generic silhouette — the detail that makes people stop and look.
- Any airspace, not just yours. Point it at any airport in the world and watch the arrivals board from your desk.
- Screen Cast. The device streams its own display over Wi-Fi to a browser, TV or capture tool — which also means it films itself, with no glare and no camera.
