io.github.flightdb/flightdb is a MCP server that provides aircraft registry search, flight history, and analytics from ADS-B Exchange data.
About
FlightDB is a remote MCP server that puts aviation intelligence in reach of coding agents. developers exploring trackers, fleet dashboards, compliance tooling, or travel-adjacent apps can pull registry details, historical flight patterns, and analytics without scraping or building ADS-B pipelines first. The catalog lists a streamable HTTP remote at flightdb.org, which lowers setup friction compared to stdio-only servers—you register the URL and authenticate per their connect page. Use it when factual flight data de-risks your MVP scope or content strategy. It is specialized domain data, not a general SQL or maps stack; developers outside aviation, drones, or logistics research should skip it. After validation, the same tools can seed mock APIs or power analytics prototypes tied to real movement data.

What it does
Query aircraft registry, flight history, and ADS-B analytics from your agent while validating aviation or logistics product ideas.
Who is it for?
Best when you're prototyping flight tracking, fleet ops, or aviation research apps and want agent-native ADS-B-backed queries via hosted MCP.
Skip if: Generic CRUD apps with no flight domain, or teams that require on-prem ADS-B ingestion instead of a third-party API.
What you get
After adding the FlightDB remote MCP, your agent can answer data-backed flight and registry questions while you shape features and positioning.
- Registry and flight-history answers grounded in ADS-B Exchange–backed data
- Research notes and feature specs informed by real aviation datasets
- Faster validate-phase prototypes that reference authoritative flight queries
By the numbers

FlightDB MCP
Connect your AI assistant to FlightDB — aircraft registry search, flight history, and analytics via the Model Context Protocol.
FlightDB aggregates flight data from ADS-B Exchange, one of the largest unfiltered ADS-B data sources, combined with official aircraft registry records. Unlike FlightRadar24, FlightAware, or Planefinder — which filter or suppress certain flights — FlightDB gives you unfiltered access to full flight histories with deep per-aircraft analytics you won't find elsewhere.
