Finally a way of seeing the data from my PlanePlotter machine (that uses a RTL 1090 dongle) including the "positionless" aircraft that are too low for others to receive and place on PlanePlotter Mobile's map. I have even managed to setup so I can use while away from home by entering my home IP address and set my Routers Port Forwarding for port 30003 to direct to my PP machine. The only problem is with a Dynamic IP I could have to change it every now and then if my IP changes. Roberto provides excellent support - and even though he was on holiday he pushed out a couple of updates to fix some issues I had.

This doesn't show most of the planes on my planeplotter, doesn't refresh the plane data enough, and lacks a lot of the features the iOS version has.
