An aircraft position synchronization system and methods for coordinating positioning of vehicles in motion are presented. A rabbit calculation module calculates a planned position on an orbit pattern of an aircraft in flight, and a planned position-time projection vector comprising a planned velocity vector of the planned position. A display module graphically displays the orbit pattern, the planned position and the planned velocity vector of the planned position moving in real-time along the orbit pattern. The display module further displays the planned position-time projection vector, an actual position of the aircraft, and an actual position-time projection vector of the aircraft based on a bank angle of the aircraft such that a user determines the planned position on the planned position-time projection vector of the aircraft in order to arrive at a predetermined position at a correct time. A rendezvous module coordinates the aircraft with a second aircraft in flight.
