  • Link a private database to the website?

I have a private database of aircraft sightings which I would like to link to the photos on this website.

1. Is it ok to do this?

2. I would search by Registration/Serial/Tail Number - call it what you will - using data already in my database. What is the URL I would need to use to facilitate such a search, please?

I would add that this database is purely for my own interest and pleasure, and will not be shared elsewhere. A direct link would simply save me doing a separate search each time I wish to see an image of a particular aircraft.

Thank you.

Are you saying that Airport-Data members would not have access to your photo database?

First, specify the name of the database link after the CREATE DATABASE LINK keywords. L Brands Aces

Second, provide user and password of the remote database after the CONNECT TO and IDENTIFIED BY keywords.

Finally, specify the service name of the remote database.

At this point, I would point out that only the site owner can approve of any such arrangement.

It must be assumed that he will read the proposed details and his response regarding any decision in this matter must be awaited.
