I love Flightradar24 I use it several times a day, BUT I dont get this FAA. Whats point if theres a 5min delay? FR Pro as it is/was before & still is is as close to real time as it gets, so why the fuss about FAA if its not as accurate?. Thanks

Nice to see 'data key' the icons on main screen showing the source differences.
Hopefully this will stop all the questions/queries over the differences that keep popping up But only if other people notice them like I did too!Posts not to be taken as official support representation - Just a helpful uploader who tinkers

Originally posted by Mike View PostYes, this is a known issue. Westjet is one of few airlines that omits ICAO code in their callsign. So we receive 995 from ADS-B. But we get WJA995 from FAA. Best would of course be if Westjet transmitted correct callsign, but it will never happen, so we need to handle it. This also sometimes happens on other flights, noticed VIR714R and VIR714 flying with 5 minutes difference 2 days ago. It's on our to-do list and will be sorted out.
Does this problem will be fixe before the last of the year ?
