Raspberry PiAware Live Flight Tracking System

I have my CIS1096 Internet of Things students working on a “mini” project this weekend.  So… I thought I would join in on the fun and build a Raspberry Pi based FlightAware tracking system.  The build is super simple to get up and running with a small amount of parts needed (See List Below) that cost approximately $75.00.  For this project, I used one of my older Raspberry Pi 2 B+ that I hardwired into my home network versus using a Raspi 3 with wireless.  The Installation pages provided below are good and have step by step instructions, however, like with most instructions online there was a little bit of modification needed.
