Hi
I live in Dubai (UK Expat) and wondered whether I would get value from RadarBox here in the UAE. I read that 70% of aicraft are ADS_B enabled, does that apply to Middle East ? As you know a lot of the aircraft out this way are a little older than the average !
Thanks
Mike
This might give you some idea of coverage from your closest Radarbox user. Looks like a very active region.

And DXB will be even more active. Go for it!!
All the EK, Etihad aircraft have ADS-B and also other airlines BAW, AAL, PIA will also have ADS-B and be shown.
Considering DXB is already busy it will only get bussier with the new airport.
We had a user in Dubai that reported lots of activity. Without an external antenna he was able to see Abu Dhabi approach, imagine with a proper antenna and pre-amplifier. As our support said almost all Emirates and Etihad aircraft have ADS-B. An installation in Dubai running 24/7 would be really interesting and important to all of us.
Indeed. Go for it. You will not regret it.
Thanks for the feeback guys - Appreciated.

It would be great if you had one RadarBox live 24/7 in Dubai (just like the Kuwait stations we have).
