Hi, I've been using this but now the URL doesn't appear to work, it reports a table missing: "Table 'radar.snapshots' doesn't exist" Do you have any idea how to fix?

Hi,

Can you post the full error log? I'm not sure what's causing that.

No, but in the code line 19 is URL_JSON_HISTORICAL = 'http://db.flightradar24.com/playback/%Y%m%d/%H%M00.js'

If you encode that and call it from a browser, the page isn't served. If you change the server to eg db8, there isn't any data any longer. http://db8.flightradar24.com/playback/20150211/110000.js

Looks like the feel URL/format changed -- it's now a page like this.

I'll have to modify this library sometime.
