Included with the software is a database of U.S. Airports. When you open the databook (as we call them) of these airports, you'll note that we've created the fields you'll likely need when using such a database. Of course, you can change the field names to whatever you want - but we thought that these would give you a good start.

In the U.S. Airports databook, we've pre-populated all 52 records with 5 fields we thought you'd definitely need. And those 5 are:

1. Airport Name
2. Airport Code
3. Airport Website
4. Airport City, State Zip
5. Airport Phone (General Info)

The image below shows a screenshot of the U.S. Airports databook with some notes we've added to help explain the power of the internet features contained in Thunder Books.

Below the image, we'll talk about some of these features that helps set Thunder Books apart from all other Contact Management Programs.

In the case above, we've opened the Salt Lake City International Airport record. As you can see, the 5 fields we've mentioned above have been filled in - the rest should be filled in by the end user, with fields renamed as desired.

The features - OK, let's start with the Website field. Placing the focus (clicking) in the Website text area and pressing the shortcut CTRL + W allows instant navigation (with your default web browser) to the airport's official website. From there, you can find out any information you may need regarding flights, local hotels, places of interest, etc.

Next we have the Airport Code Field - Using these 3 letter codes on Mapquest, Google Maps or Yahoo Maps enables instant mapping of that airport. What we've done is eliminated the steps one ordinarily would have to go through to get that map displayed. By simply pressing CTRL + F1, Thunder Books automatically delivers you to Mapquest at which point Mapquest displays the airport location. Under our menu "Options" is a function that allows you to copy to memory your home address. Now all you have to do is paste that address in the required field on Mapquest to get driving directions to the airport. You can do the same for both Google and Yahoo as well.

Finally, let's talk about the Phone Field. Placing the focus in this text area and pressing F11 automatically dials the airport's number using your phone modem (providing of course, you have one).

So as you can see, with Thunder Books traveling can be a lot less burdensome.
