Cool find, thanks. Makes you appreciate just how crowded the airspace above the Lower Mainland really is (although I'm sure this pales in comparison to LAX, Heathrow etc)
I watched the site at about 10:30 in the morning, when most of the flights were take offs, in green, with some arrivals, in red approaching from the east to the north runway. Interesting.
What I didn't understand, however, what are the flights in YELLOW? Arrivals or departures? Great find nevertheless, as others have noted. I think we may need a third major runway sooner than we think.
After recently starting flights to Sydney (not the one in Australia), WestJet has now begun operating new routes to London (not the one in the UK). To complement its existing services to Calgary and Winnipeg the airline has started serving London (YXU) in Ontario from Halifax (YHZ) and Vancouver (YVR). Both routes will be served daily.
i just saw a plane over burnaby and it didn't show up on that thing
There is a ten minute delay for security purposes.
"YVR media relations officer Alana Lawrence said to overcome security concerns relating to commercial flights transmission of flight data was delayed by 10 minutes, by which time the flight was well clear of the area or had landed." Vancouver Sun

Someone mentioned to me today that Air Canada is cutting its YVR - NRT route. Is he mis-informed or... is this actually true?
Great site, jhlousa, but a question ...
