Jens Mueller-Junker Posted September 15, 2021 at 11:27 AM Posted September 15, 2021 at 11:27 AM Dear Sir/Madam, thanks a lot for updating VAT-Spy. I have a feature request: Can you please enable the user to filter for a specific flight on the map? Rationale: The user would be able to hide all flights except his/her own flight - hence "declutter" the map. Thanks a lot. Kind regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Ying Posted September 15, 2021 at 05:47 PM Posted September 15, 2021 at 05:47 PM That's already available in the filters window. See https://vatspy.rosscarlson.dev/#docs Instructor // ZNY/ZWY Facility Coordinator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Mueller-Junker Posted September 16, 2021 at 05:18 AM Author Posted September 16, 2021 at 05:18 AM Thanks for helping me. I am able to highlight a specific flight by using the filter: However, I don't know how to remove the other flights on the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Mueller-Junker Posted November 22, 2021 at 07:08 PM Author Posted November 22, 2021 at 07:08 PM (edited) @Ross Carlson Dear Mr. Carlson, could you implement a function which removes all flights on the map except one specific/selectable flight? That would be great. Thanks a lot. Kind regards - Jens Edited November 22, 2021 at 07:08 PM by Jens Mueller-Junker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted November 22, 2021 at 07:35 PM Posted November 22, 2021 at 07:35 PM I doubt that I would ever add this ... definitely not something I would use, and it seems like it wouldn't be useful to the majority of the user base. Why do you feel this is necessary? Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Mueller-Junker Posted November 23, 2021 at 08:47 AM Author Posted November 23, 2021 at 08:47 AM The reason is that I would like to see only my own aircraft on the map. The current filter only allows me to highlight a specific flight. I still see the other flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it sounds like you are after is a moving map which shows online ATC, there are many programs and apps out there that will do that for you.

Jens Mueller-Junker Posted December 7, 2021 at 05:13 AM Author Posted December 7, 2021 at 05:13 AM (edited) Honestly speaking, you're right. Yes, I use VAT-Spy as a moving map containing ATC info. Because I had compared all of the many programs and found out that I personally liked VAT-Spy most. Please foregive me 🙂 Edited December 7, 2021 at 05:16 AM by Jens Mueller-Junker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
