About

Built by people who look up.

Contrail is a collecting game played under real skies. It began with a simple idea: the aircraft passing overhead are already rare, already numbered, already storied — they just needed cards. Contrail is built by a small team of collectors and plane spotters, and launches soon on iOS.

Questions, trade disputes, or a card that doesn't match its registry record — write to us and include the card's serial where relevant. To hear about the launch, drop us a line and we'll add you to the crew list.

Privacy policy

Your location stays yours

Contrail uses your location only while the Radar is open, to show aircraft within range. Precise location is never stored with your catches — cards record the airport area (e.g. "caught over YSSY"), not your coordinates. Public profiles show only your username, stats and the cards you choose to display. We don't sell personal data, and you can delete your account and its data from the app at any time.

Terms of service

Play fair, on the record

Cards are digital collectibles with no monetary value and may not be sold for real currency. Catches must come from genuine radar contacts; spoofed locations or automated catching will void the cards involved and may close the account. The registry is the single source of truth for ownership — a transfer is complete only when it appears on the card's verification page. Flight data shown in the app comes from public ADS-B feeds and is provided as-is.
