This graphic site works OK under Internet Explorer;  It first delays, then shows a "Green" airplane.  Click on airplane slowly brings up the map and tracks.

Two Mozilla Versions ago it worked.
One Mozilla Version ago it sometime shows map, but never tracks.
Latest Mozilla Version never shows the "green" airplane to get map started.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Bring up website
2. My system never brings up "green" airplane
3. Previous Mozilla never brought up tracks.
Actual Results:  
Just invoke website and click on the "green" airplane symbol.  Works OK under Internet Explorer.

Works for me. I'm seeing the map with the airport and the tracks of the planes.

But I noticed that it's a Java app. Please make sure that you have the latest version of the plugin installed. I'm using version 6.0.240.7.

from private mail :

You hit the nail on-the-head!  Problem solved.

It would appear that my Java has been out-of-date for over a year.

In a perfect world,  Java should police its versions....a user declares
a dependency on a specific (new) version....and if an old version of
Java detects that dependency...it brings up an error message ???

Not too hard....
