Helicopters, military and low planes over Burke
2 helicopters are flying within 60 km. The nearest, MUSL (B212), is 31 km E at 900 ft. Police, air-ambulance, news and tour helicopters often fly low and slow over cities; ADS-B does not say which role a helicopter has, but the registration on the flight page usually tells you the operator.
3 military aircraft are visible nearby: MUSL (B212) 31 km E at 900 ft; ASH6170 (E170) 38 km NNW at 2,550 ft; MUSL (B212) 57 km ESE at 1,000 ft. Many military flights switch their transponders off or hide their identity, so this is a minimum.
5 aircraft are below 3,000 ft and not next to an airport: RPA4491 24 km NNE at 2,750 ft; UAL1385 32 km NNW at 2,100 ft; UCA4866 34 km NNW at 2,025 ft; ASH6170 38 km NNW at 2,550 ft; SWA724 56 km NE at 2,025 ft. Low flying away from runways is usually helicopters, survey or banner flights, or traffic approaching a smaller airfield.

What plane is flying over me?
This page uses the centre of Burke. For the exact aircraft above your street, open "What's overhead" and share your location: it lists every aircraft near you with the direction and angle to look.
Aircraft broadcast their position by ADS-B and volunteer receivers relay it. Small drones, most military aircraft on missions and some police aircraft do not broadcast, so they never appear on any public tracker. Drone sightings cannot be checked here.
Coverage: ADS-B from volunteer receivers. Within 60 km of a big city coverage is usually good above a few thousand feet; low helicopters can drop out between receivers. Circling detection uses positions sampled once a minute over the last 20 minutes.
