I count 4 planes over the UK.

Northern Europe seems to be busier!

I can't believe it's very accurate, if it thinks there are only 216 aircraft worldwide ("Showing: 49 aircrafts of 216 worldwide"... surely there must be more than than?

I just zoomed out and there is nothing in Africa, most of North and South America, Russia and China...

There's more - it only shows a/c within range of their own transponder network... They've only got 100 transponder sites, so it won't give much coverage...
