TERMINAL AIR allows users to view the movements of planes that are known or specifically suspected of being used in the CIA EXTRAORDINARY RENDITION PROGRAM or providing support for the vast prison system that has been constructed outside US law.

In the Extraordinary Rendition program, suspected terrorists captured in Western nations are transported to other countries for torture and interrogation. The transportation is largely carried out using leased equipment and private contractors. These private charter planes often use civilian airports for refueling, making their movements subject to public record and visible to anyone who knows which tail numbers to look for.

By subscribing to the Terminal Air Email Alert system, you can receive live updates whenever a plane on the Terminal Air watchlist takes off or lands from an airport of your choosing. Try selecting an airport near where you live, or monitor the traffic at a distant outpost in the Global War On Terror.
