Wanting to learn a bit more about c# I continued working on this little program.
Changes from the previous version:
- added the ability to fetch raw METAR data and (try) to decode locally (not yet complete)
- changed the way results are displayed.
- fixed a few bugs introduced along the way 
Tested on WM 6 and XP.

Sorry, no user guide, I thought it’’s pretty intuitive.
So.. the station id for Gardemoen is ENGM.
In the configuration tab enter the station id and press ‘Add’, Now press refresh and see what’s happening.
Please check that you have an working data connection (GPRS,WiFI, etc).
If you still have problems please contact me so we can work it out.

Very handy program, I wish it was possible to add user comment to the name of airport, but so far I liked it. Really small today plugin showing wind direction, temperature and name of airport will be appreciated, however, absolutely not necessary
Thanks!

Great program, it comes in really handy to see the actual situation of airfields on approach.
i was wondering if you’re going to continue developing the program?
(it may be a thought to incorporate TAF data as well as making it visually more appealing)
keep up the good work,

I will try to add any features requested (if posible). Any ideea where i can fetch TAF data?
Regarding the look and feel.. it’s part of my ’style’, i like things small and fast rather than sluggish and eye catching. But i am open to any sugestions
