Flightradar24 shows live airplane traffic from different parts around the world. The technique to receive flight information from aircraft is called ADS-B. That means the Flightradar24 can only show information about aircraft equipped with an ADS-B transponder. Today about 60% (about 30% in USA and about 70% in Europe) of the passenger aircraft and only a small amount of military and private aircraft have an ADS-B transponder.

The display I got doesn’t show anywhere close to 30% of the US traffic.
Has to be more planes than that flying.
Seriously. Europe is covered with “planes”. Unless this is a map of 1920’s USA.

Yeah, I have or had a link to a website that had hundreds of planes flying. You could filter which corridor you wanted.
Thanks! I have those two.

If you go to this link you can get much Flight data also you may want to look at the Main/Home site! My Freeper(M1-A2) son/Nerd uses this for many situations and questions.
