reads, displays and sorts tar1090 aircraft.json ADSB data
This script takes real-time Aircraft ADSB output from tar10190/data/aircraft.json, parses it and displays it. It can help in understanding more about the information transmitted in ADSB transmissions.
The aircraft.json data is read into two lists, formatted and the raw JSON data. As the data is parsed, the script also captures stats: s
