Why does the number of flights on the “all flights” map disagree with the total flight count on the main live tracking page?
The map displays all flights that FlightAware has recently obtained a position report for. The “total flight count” statistic is the total number of IFR aircraft that have departed but not arrived and with an ETA that’s in the future. The total count statistic could contain aircraft not in radar contact, the all flights map could contain VFR flights, and many other situations exist create the discrepancy.
