FlightDB MCP Server
Unlike FlightRadar24, FlightAware, or Planefinder — which filter or suppress certain flights — FlightDB gives you unfiltered access to full flight histories with deep per-aircraft analytics you won't find elsewhere.
Documentation
FlightDB MCP
Connect your AI assistant to FlightDB — aircraft registry search, flight history, and analytics via the Model Context Protocol.
FlightDB aggregates flight data from ADS-B Exchange, one of the largest unfiltered ADS-B data sources, combined with official aircraft registry records. Unlike FlightRadar24, FlightAware, or Planefinder — which filter or suppress certain flights — FlightDB gives you unfiltered access to full flight histories with deep per-aircraft analytics you won't find elsewhere.
