Helicopters, military and low planes over San Dimas

10 helicopters are flying within 60 km. The nearest, N960LA (AS50), is 25 km W at 775 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.

2 military aircraft are visible nearby: KNIFE00 (H60) 41 km SSW at 300 ft; BT11 (H60) 45 km SSW at 950 ft. Many military flights switch their transponders off or hide their identity, so this is a minimum.

6 aircraft are below 3,000 ft and not next to an airport: N6529S 8 km SW at 2,900 ft; N960LA 25 km W at 775 ft; N994SD 34 km SSE at 2,800 ft; FIRE5 37 km W at 1,450 ft; ASA308 43 km WSW at 2,775 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.

Is a plane circling over San Dimas?

N259CB (P28A, aircraft) is 37 km ESE at 1,050 ft. Over the last 19 minutes it has stayed within about 2.8 km of one spot.

KNIFE00 (H60, helicopter) is 41 km SSW at 300 ft. Over the last 19 minutes it has stayed within about 1.9 km of one spot.

What plane is flying over me?

This page uses the centre of San Dimas. 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.
