Hello, Last week I could still read data using the API, today I noticed I suddenly only one airplane back, and that showed this data: "Id":"AD5B00","FlightNr":"NEEDFEED","Registration":"CONTACTADSBX" Did I miss anything? I also donated some money. And I do have a feeder running! It's called Dutchy. I am a bit confused, as there seem to be two now. Do I need to do something?
Use the contact form. https://www.adsbexchange.com/contact/ Version 1 of the API is being gradually phased out. All old keys were removed.
> I was not aware of that. Neither was I. When I used the contact form, James helped me out with a pointer to the Version 2 API fields and an updated endpoint. The field documentation is not 100% accurate but it's close and I was able to (mostly) restore the functionality I had in Version 1. What I'd really like to have is the 'wtc' (Wake Turbulence Category) field from Version 1. I need it to filter out all the airliners, of which I have no interest. Is there any more endpoint documentation? V1 had endpoints that did various filtering. Thanks, Joe
VRS style data is not coming back. You will want A1 for light aircraft < 15,500 lbs. https://www.adsbexchange.com/version-2-api-wip/ category: emitter category to identify particular aircraft or vehicle classes (values A0 – D7) (2.2.3.2.5.2) Code: { "hex": "abaf30", "type": "adsb_icao", "flight": "VAR452 ", "r": "N852EF", "t": "SR20", "alt_baro": 2700, "alt_geom": 2575, "gs": 127.9, "track": 58.42, "baro_rate": -640, "geom_rate": -960, "squawk": "1200", "emergency": "none", "category": "A1", "nav_qnh": 1008.8, "nav_altitude_mcp": 5888, "lat": 32.920715, "lon": -111.836646, "nic": 9, "rc": 75, "seen_pos": 0.332, "version": 2, "nic_baro": 1, "nac_p": 10, "nac_v": 2, "sil": 3, "sil_type": "perhour", "gva": 2, "sda": 2, "alert": 0, "spi": 0, "mlat": [], "tisb": ["geom_rate"], "messages": 6927374, "seen": 0.2, "rssi": -25.0 }

ICAO WTC L (Light) is equivalent to ADS-B (TC=4, CA=1) or A1 ICAO WTC M (Medium) is equivalent to ADS-B (TC=4, CA=2 or CA=3) or A2 and A3. ICAO WTC H (Heavy) or J (Super) is equivalent to ADS-B (TC=4, CA=5) or A4 and A5
