Our Flight Blight Reports provide comprehensive coverage of all aviation activity above your property, including:
Commercial passenger aircraft (airlines serving scheduled routes)
Cargo and freight aircraft (including nighttime operations)
Charter flights (passenger and cargo)
Private and business jets (corporate and personal aviation)
Military aircraft (training flights, transport, and operational activity)
Helicopters (commercial, private, emergency services, and military)
General aviation (small private aircraft, flight training, recreational flying)
Regional and commuter aircraft
We capture aircraft at all altitudes – from low-level operations near airports and helipads to high-altitude cruising traffic. This comprehensive approach ensures you understand the complete aviation picture above your property, not just commercial airline activity.
Why comprehensive coverage matters: Different aircraft types create different impacts. Military helicopters may operate at unsociable hours. Private jets often use different approach paths than commercial airlines. General aviation training circuits can mean frequent low-altitude passes. Our report captures all of this activity to give you the complete picture.

Reports are typically delivered within 3 business days of purchase. You'll receive an email notification when your report is ready to download.
-
Reports are delivered as a PDF document that you can download, save, and share with estate agents, solicitors, or family members involved in your property decision.
-
Yes, absolutely. Our reports are specifically designed for buyers conducting pre-purchase due diligence. You simply need the full property address.
-
No. Flight path data is publicly available information. You can order a report for any property address without requiring owner consent.
-
We provide Flight Blight Reports for 190 million properties in the UK, USA and Australia.
-
Our reports use official flight tracking data, the same data used by aviation authorities and air traffic control. This ensures accuracy and reliability.
-
Our flight data is continuously updated to reflect current aviation patterns and airport operations.
-
Many properties significantly affected by aircraft noise are 10-20+ miles from airports. Flight paths extend far beyond airport boundaries, and aircraft at cruising altitude can still generate noticeable noise. Distance from an airport is not a reliable indicator of flight path impact.
-
While flight paths can change due to runway renovations, wind patterns, or operational procedures, major changes typically require consultation periods. Our report shows current and historical patterns, giving you the best available information for your decision. Some airports regularly rotate flight paths to share noise impact across communities.
-
es. Aircraft activity varies dramatically by season (UK and USA see 50% more flights in August than February), time of day, day of week, and wind direction. A quiet viewing may not reflect typical conditions, especially during peak travel seasons.
-
Yes, you can purchase reports for multiple addresses. Each property requires a separate report. Contact us about bulk discounts
-
Flight tracking apps show current flights in real-time but don't provide historical analysis, seasonal patterns, or property-specific impact assessments. Our reports analyze months of data to show typical patterns, peak times, and comprehensive trends that a few minutes on a tracking app cannot reveal.
-
Our report provides comprehensive data on aircraft activity. Research shows that properties under flight paths can experience value impacts, but the degree varies by location, noise levels, and local market conditions. Our data helps you assess the risk; local estate agents can provide market-specific pricing guidance.
