Helicopters, military and low planes over Davis
3 helicopters are flying within 60 km. The nearest, REH6 (AS50), is 23 km W at 5,275 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.
No military aircraft are showing within 60 km. Military jets often fly without broadcasting, so "none visible" does not mean none flying.
6 aircraft are below 3,000 ft and not next to an airport: N2140Y 21 km S at 1,800 ft; N3767T 24 km SE at 2,300 ft; N900AA 34 km SSE at 2,675 ft; N2384L 35 km SSE at 1,925 ft; ~2B0201 46 km ENE at 900 ft. Low flying away from runways is usually helicopters, survey or banner flights, or traffic approaching a smaller airfield.
2 aircraft nearby use a privacy programme (PIA or LADD), so the owner asked for the identity to be hidden; the position is still shown.

- N288JK · EC20 helicopter, 46 km ENE, 900 ft

What plane is flying over me?
This page uses the centre of Davis. 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.
