Phone app that tracks planes 'is aid to terrorists armed with missiles'
Threat: Security experts have slammed a £2 phone app which gives specific details about in-flight aircraft
A mobile phone application costing less than £2 which tracks the precise location of passenger aircraft in the sky is a serious terrorist threat and should be banned, according to a security expert.
