Dear Fred, thanks very much for adding the data but I am a bit confused. Your existing location of Norwich takes the data from RAF Station Marham with a GeoID of 2641181 and a METAR of EGYM. The newly added location that you have made for me, I expected to show the weather conditions for the Airport which does broadcast the conditions and is very local to me. The GeoID I provided is 6296644 and confirmed at the Norwegian weather site. But the METAR shown in the properties box for Norwich I A is still shown as EGYM and not EGSH which I believe is the identifier. Changing the METAR in properties does display the correct local conditions. Should I do this or is this something you need to fix in you DB?



I do appreciate the interest and activity you all show and publicly thank you for your great efforts.

Hi Roger,

Thanks for your respond.
The METARS are coupled automatically.
You can change it yourself, like you described.
However I will ask the developer to change it in the database as well:

Pasha,

Could you please change the ICAO code for 6296644; Norwich International Airport/United Kingdom from EGYM to EGSH?
Thanks in advance.

Fred

Hi Roger,

The METAR for Norwich International Airport has been changed in the database to EGSH.
You can choose this by Location/Properties/Default.
If your location still shows EGYM here it will change to EGSH.

Fred

Thanks, Fred - appreciate the follow-up.

Roger
