## Description

This widget allows you to display an Airliners.net aviation picture on your website.
You can easily choose between a random picture, the “Top Of Yesterday” picture, 
or a specific picture by specifying the picture ID in the widget’s parameters.

The widget uses a class called “widget_airliners_widget” allowing you to enforce
some rendering, as the default block provided by Airliners.net is black with white
writing.

Included is airliners-widget.css style sheet that shows how to get the block with
gray writing and transparent background. Feel free to edit this file to suit your
needs !

This widget comes out of the box with french and german translations.

This widget also supports shortcodes !

Just add a [airliners] shortcode to any of you posts and you’ll get a random Airliners.
net picture by default !
 The shortcode supports two parameters : imgtype and imgid.*
imgtype indicates what type of picture you want to show, it can take one of these
values : random, yesterday, picture * imgid sets the id of the specific picture 
you want to show, if ‘picture’ has been set to imgtype

Shortcode usage samples :
 [airliners imgtype=’yesterday’] Displays the top of yesterday’s
pictures.

[airliners imgtype=’picture’ imgid=’123456′]
 Displays the picture corresponding
to id ‘123456’.

would be nice to create a slide or have several pics instead of a single thumbnail.
Any plans to expand this? would also be nice if there was available Shortcode string
to add this to Visual composer finally, this does not work with latest WP install
thanks
