Tried it. Liked it. I'll send it to my students.
Saw a few things I that I would like to point out though:
1. Column headings are white and don't show up ( my eyes are old though)

I will look at letting the user decide color combinations. White
provides the most contrast on my machine, but everyone has
preferences.


2. What name format are you looking for on runway name? Just whatever ( a
string)?

What ever you want to use. It's not really used now, except for
editing, but I felt like it might be in the future.

3. Crosswind displayed for only one runway, presumably the first one
listed. A Tooltip could be used to display the remaining runways, or an
additional text area.

It's not the first one. If you have multiple runways, MM will dermine
the active runway based on minimal x-wind and maximal headwind
components. That may not be the true active runway at some airports,
but it's the one with the best wind situation.

4. A toggle to display plain english or raw METAR/TAF.


Third button from the left. The tool tip is not working for some
reason.


Altogether a really good effort. Thanks.

Dan

Thanks a bunch for the feedback.
