It's a few hours after the Super Bowl has ended, and, for the neutrals at least, heartbeats should have mostly returned to their usual resting pace. That won't be the case for flight control staff at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport in Arizona, however — through the magic of FlightAware's real-time tracking, you can check out the crazy volume of small private aircraft jetting out in all directions. And, although you've probably never felt sorry for the kind of person that flies to the Super Bowl on their own jet, try to spare a thought for those on board the "Execjet" on its way back to Seattle. What were the Seahawks thinking with that last play?
