An application engine receives flight position data associated with an airplane through a global computing network. The flight position data includes a list of recorded locations of the airplane. Using the list of recorded locations of the airplane, the application engine computes a current position of the airplane and a polling interval. Responsive to calculating the current position of the airplane, the application engine generates a flight status view of the airplane based on the current position of the airplane. The flight status view includes a flight tracker image representative of the airplane's current location and flight path, and one or more visual indicators corresponding to social network data and informative data associated with the current position of the airplane. The application engine periodically updates the flight status view of the airplane using an updated current position of the airplane.
