Recreating a United 777 low pass from real telemetry, in a browser

Creator bilawalsidhu shows a Fleet Week scene that isn't real footage: he reconstructed United's 777 low pass along the SF waterfront using real flight and vessel telemetry, rendered live in his Mac browser. The result is realistic enough that he had to clarify it's not real video—a striking demo of public telemetry plus browser 3D rendering.
