Is There Internet Access To "Reggie's" Of Specific Flights?

As part of my obsessiveness / compulsiveness, I was curious as to what the "reggie" was on a particular aircraft that my wife and daughter boarded earlier today at LAX. For the uninitiated, the "reggie" is the governmental registration number that is assigned to all commercial aircraft and is, more often than not, prominently displayed somewhere on the outside of the aircraft.

Is there an Internet data base that the general public can access where this information could be obtained, or is it considered "classified" and security sensitive by the individual airlines and government agencies?

My daughter has only flown on one other aircraft in her short life, and the "reggie" was duly noted and recorded for that event. I figured I would continue the attempt at maintaining a record of the specific planes on which she's flown (I do this for myself too -- don't ask me why) and, alas, I did not record that info earlier today. (Do remember the obsessiveness / compulsiveness that enters into all this.)

The flights in question are PR 103 of Feb. 26 LAX-GUM-MNL and PR 811 of Feb. 28 MNL-DVO.

Any information regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
