Please note that the "Registration" search
will return both registered and de-registered
aircraft. The other search fields will only
return currently registered aircraft unless
the "View de-registered aircraft" box is checked
in which case only the de-registered aircraft
will be returned. The "Registration" search
will retrieve all records that begin
with the phrase entered whereas the "Serial
Number", "Aircraft Type/Name", "Owner" and
"Mode S (hex)" will return all records containing
that phrase. For instance, searching "Owner"
with smith might return Paul
Smith, Smith and Co
and Peter Smithson.
You can also use * as a
wildcard. For instance, searching "Aircraft
Type/Name" with BEECH 200
will only return BEECH 200,
however searching on BEECH*200
will return BEECH 200 and
BEECH B200. Data can also be entered
in any combination of the search fields to
further refine your search.
The "Aircraft type/name" search field simultaneously
searches on the manufacturer, full type
name, popular name and generic name of
the aircraft. If you are unsure of the designation
of an aircraft put in the simplest description
of the aircraft (generic name), eg
PA34 for a Piper PA-34-200T, a single line
listing of all examples will appear. From
the information displayed you will be able
to refine your search to reduce the number
of records retrieved.
Alternatively enter the popular name for
the aircraft, eg Citation for a Cessna 500,
a single line listing of all examples will
appear. From the information displayed you
will be able to refine your search to reduce
the number of records retrieved.
The “Mode S (hex)” search field searches
on the hexadecimal address of the Mode S transponder
where an aircraft is Mode S equipped.
