Problem

Pete is looking to implement a database for Maverick Airways so he can manage data more effectively across the company. The database will be used not only by him but also by employees within all departments of the company.

Using the data model provided, create a database for Maverick Airways in SQLite. 

Requirements:

Part A:

Create the SQLite database tables.

Build an SQLite database of TABLES that match the official “MaverickAirways_Data_Model.pdf” provided in the Assignments folder on Canvas.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT use your personal data model that you built in the Data Model Assignment

1. Create each table with the correct name. You should create nine (9) tables.

2. Create all attributes for each table with the correct name and SQLite data types

3. Implement the primary keys (or composite keys)

4. Implement each relationship for every foreign key.

Part B:

Import data into the SQLite database.

Using the techniques you learned in the lab videos, import the provided sample data (MaverickAirways_Data_Fall_2025.xlsx) into each table.

1. Prepare a CSV (Comma Delimited) file for each table you intend to import into your SQLite database. Name each CSV file the name of the table. You should have nine (9) CSV files in total.

Note: You will need to reformat and “clean up” the sample data spreadsheet by cutting and re-pasting some of the columns from each table into its own CSV file.

2. Using SQLite Studios "Tools - Import" function, populate your database tables with the appropriate CSV files. 

Hint: First import the “Parent” tables that act as “1” tables in 1-M relationships – then import the “Child” tables.

Part C:

Insert new data rows into tables.

Using the techniques you learned in the lab, insert new data rows into tables

1. Create two (2) new passengers in the Passenger table. Use the following information for the new passengers.

2. Create two (2) new tickets in the Ticket table and include relevant information. Use the following information for the new tickets:

New Ticket 1:

New Ticket 2: *Changes to image: ECON should be spelt ECNO to fit with data sheet*

Part D:

Query the data in the SQLite database using Select.

Using the techniques you learned in the labs, write a SELECT QUERY to answer the following questions based on the data in your SQLite database.

IMPORTANT: You MUST include your “working” SQL statements in this document. The code should not include any line numbers. We will copy these SQL code and test run with your database. Failure to submit working SQL will result in deductions.
