THE PARKS AIRPORT REGISTER
is what this Web site is all about...
This Web site shares and explores with you the stories behind handwritten entries made in a paper Register 85 years ago. To do this for you, I provide a database online that mirrors all the entries in the Register. My database controls and drives all the buttons you see immediately to the right. I encourage you to explore their stories.
Another way to work your way through the site is to view the Register by year or page number, below, then link from there to the people and aircraft who are signed in the Parks Airport Register from so long ago.
Throughout, I supplement your queries with information from the database. Then I guide you toward other interesting and relevant information via links, either internal to this site, or to external Web sites or other resources. There are (literally) millions of ways to work your way through this site.
WHERE TO BEGIN?
You can enter the database in many different ways. By year is one way, which you can do with the dropdown menu below. You'll soon want to refine your searches by focusing particularly on one aspect of the database. For example, you may also search the Register by PEOPLE, AIRPLANES, PLACES and EVENTS. Click the buttons above right to explore those options.
