I am doing a computer science project for college and i was wondering where i could find the source of real time flight arrival information. I am familiar and use flytecomm.com but i want to know where they get the flight information and if it is publically available.

Thanks for any input.

I believe the (only) source is each individual airline. One of the single commercial global collection points is the real-time OAG Flight Status Data Base. OAG sells the data as a product. FlightAware and others likely tap into the FAA flight tracking data base. Suggest you contact the FAA via the web and ask about access procedures AND cost. It's likely not free and/or requires significant software to interpret and display.

How about the airports' arrivals/departures sections of their websites. These are particularly good in Europe - often not so good/available in US.
