Database Search Category Suggestions

Fri May 24, 2002 12:03 am

I'd like to make the following suggestions for new database search categories.

1. Wide-body/double-aisle/heavy aircraft
2. Narrow-body/single-aisle aircraft
3. Regional Jets

I don't think these additions would be too hard to implement. For example, the wide-body category would simply display results for all wide-body aircraft, whether A300, 747, L-1011, IL-96, or any other type. This would allow users to search for all wide-body aircraft operated by SAS, to search for photos of wide-body aircraft at Stockholm, or to search for wide-body aircraft operated by SAS at Stockholm. (Random example) The same would apply to the other categories.

I'd also like to suggest that the Embraer 170 be added to the aircraft search engine.

Maybe if there was categories for Snow, Bad Weather, Beaches... and so on, it would be easier to find a type of photo you were looking for

Squigee, that would be impossible because admin would have to manually specify to what category every photo currently in database belongs to.

For lindy field, yes that would be possible. Admin would just have to assign
different aircrafts to different groups. These groups could be added:
Commercial Aircraft
-Widebody (747, DC-10, A300, 767)
-Narrowbody Jet (737, A320, 757, DC-8)
-Narrowbody Prop (DC-6, Constellation, Brittania)
-Regional Jet (328JET, ERJ-70, Canadair RJ-900)
-Regional Prop (ATR-42, SAAB 2000, DHC-7)
General Aircraft
-Corporate Jet (Learjets, Dassault, BBJ)
-Private Prop (prop Cessnas, DHC-2, Socata)
Military Aircraft
-Fighter (F-16, F/A-18, F-117)
-Bomber (B-29, B-52)
-Trainer (L-39)
-Tanker (Boeing Stratotanker)
-Paradrop
Helicopters
-Single Engine (One main rotor and one small rotor at back)
-Double Engine (Two rotors one abouve each other)
-Twin Engine (One big rotor in front and one big rotor at back)

I would like an engine close up option personally. I just love pics of an open cowling having maintanence being done on it. I'm sure there are some on the site that I just can't find.

eg:
Cathay Pacific (CX)
Qantas (QF)
