Hello,
would it be feasible to integrate basic traffic information (without the use of 3rd party devices), by displaying live traffic from flightradar24 on the Skydemon map while navigating? This would enable every user with a mobile network connection to at least see ADS-B and MLAT traffic. I imagine this would involve some negotiation with Flightradar24, but I suppose many users would be very interested in such a function?

It seems more reliable than some FLARM systems I know, and even though a certain percentage of traffic might be displayed with false information or position, it is definitely better than nothing in my opinion. I am aware, that this will neither replace looking out for traffic nor be a real alternative to system like a TRX1500 with ADS-B in/ out or TCAS.
