This search engine is rather simplistic. It searches sequentially through the SDR's. But it works ;-)

Unfortunately most of the fields in the SDR's are in abbreviations. We have included some of the abbreviations, but there are many more. In order to find a particular abbreviation, you may have to browse through some of the SDR's to find it. The search will only succeed if you enter the correct abbreviation or a shorter string. For instance you will not find anything if you enter "Continental" in the engine manufacturer field. The correct entry is "Cont". However, if you enter "Co" you will find all Continental engines as well as all Lycoming engines since both have "co" in their abbreviation. (any Unix style regular expression can be used here. This search takes about a minute) For instance, the string:

210 in the A/C Model field will find all T210 entries as well as P210, 210A, etc. The string: t.*210 in the A/C Model field will find all T210 entries as well as T-210, T 210, etc., but not the P210 entries.

All input fields are case insensitive, so you can enter upper or lower case letters.

In the search, the entries within one field (separated by semicolon) are 'or'd, and different fields are 'and'd. This means that for instance if you specify 'CESSNA;PIPER' in the aircraft manufacturer field, you will get all entries with either CESSNA or PIPER. If you specify 'CESSNA' in the manufacturer field and '207' in the aircraft model field, you will get only entries about CESSNA 207's, not about CESSNA 210's.

Since the search is sequential, it may take a while before it returns. When possible, it is advisable to limit the search by using a start and end date.

IMPORTANT: Fill in only as much information as necessary to find what you are looking for. If you fill in too many fields, they may contradict each other and you will find nothing. Start with one field, then narrow the search by progressively filling in more constraints.
