I want to build an app that notifies me when a plane is flying overhead and gives me info about that plane. Looking at various paid flight tracking APIs, I'm not sure if I can accomplish what I want without making hundreds of useless paid requests at regular intervals or setting up a microcontroller with a microphone programmed to make requests whenever it detects the sound of an aircraft. This makes me really wish that flight tracking websites had screen reader-friendly UIs. Alas, here I am contemplating paying money to fix a problem that shouldn't even exist

@PepperTheVixen@meow.social consider DIY'ing an ADS-B reciever to grab the data from the local plane and then query based off the identified plane?
