Abstract

During the recent years the Internet has evolved into a very effective medium for storing information. Providing database search facility on the Internet using different options, categories etc is common. Searchable aviation accident related databases also follow similar approach and provide restrictive search facility. This report is on the development of an interactive Web based query engine for Aircraft Accident Statistics and Knowledge (AASK) database. The type of search facilities provided by the query engine are different from other search engines and searchable database web sites. The aim of AASK database query engine is to provide better and more flexible database search facility to people concerned with aviation safety all over the world.
