This subquery in example code in Learn section return empty results, because fac_type column in airports TABLE contains airport type without underscore sign “_”
SELECT code
FROM airports
WHERE fac_type = 'SEAPLANE_BASE';
This requests is correct:
SELECT code
FROM airports
WHERE fac_type = 'SEAPLANE BASE';
or
SELECT code
FROM airports
WHERE fac_type LIKE 'SEAPLANE_BASE';
But in total it doesn’t matter. There are no flights from SEAPLANE BASE airports.
