Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability stabletravel-position-8cdb05e5
```

Example prompt: Show me all flights currently flying within the bounding box north 42.0, south 40.0, west -75.0, east -72.0 — I want their latest positions, up to 20 results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time geographic positions of flights within a defined rectangular area, especially for map visualization, airspace monitoring, or flight density analysis. Prefer this over flight-specific endpoints when you don't have a specific flight ID but want to know what's flying in a region.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or out-of-range lat/lon values return a validation error
- Missing required bounding box parameters (north, south, east, west) result in a 400 error
- No flights found in the specified region returns an empty result set
- FlightAware data unavailability causes upstream 503 errors
- Bounding box too large may hit data limits or timeout
