  1. Thank you guys! The METAR data is pulled from NOAA - they expose current (cached) data for the whole world in CSV and XML (AFAIR) - I'm pulling one of these files. It's stated in the about section. The service is generally written in such a way where adding new data sources (be it APIs, random data files or whatever) is modular and relatively easy. Regarding the domain I was surprised too. I felt that ".org" is more suitable to a non-profit hobby project than ".com" (which theoretically is for companies). Maybe I'll buy the ".com" and redirect to ".org" if the site gains some popularity.

  3. Hello! I fly a lot in real weather (as a user of xEnviro I'm constrained to it) but quite often I'd like to be able to choose the weather in which I fly. So I figured it would be nice to have a website that allows you to find aerodromes by weather (instead of finding weather for aerodrome) and didn't find one. So I slapped together a bunch of lines of code and here it is. Maybe some of you will find it useful. If you have any remarks I'll be happy to hear them! https://metarsearch.org/
