Beeindruckende Visualisierung aller Flüge, die irgendwann im August letzten Jahres innerhalb von 24 Stunden über den Nordatlantik gegangen sind. 2524 an der Zahl. Ordentlich was los da oben.

This visualization shows Transatlantic traffic over a 24 hour period taken from a day in August last year and shows 2,524 flights crossing the North Atlantic, of which 1,273 pass through the Shanwick OCA. At our busiest periods in the Summer, traffic can peak at 1,500 flights a day passing through the Shanwick OCA.
