I am looking to see if there is a published database I can hook into to download tabular information on airports.
Right now when I fly, I print the document below and fold it in half and stick it on my kneeboard.
I have written a program where I can enter my departure airport and destination, and it will fill in a lot of the values and print it in the format I like that I can fold in half.
It is based on values that I have manually prepopulated. I have put in the effort to only add a few local fields that I frequent.
I am going to 2 new airports in the next couple days and was going to update the program and got to wondering if I could just hook into an online AFD database somewhere. Is anyone aware of such a database?
This is what I fly with it is a mail merge word doc that I generate on the fly but a lot of it is manual input especially if not one of the few airports I have added to the database.
