Class E or Class G - another one of those that makes you go 'hmmmmm'

My point, which I made pretty badly, was that the E vs G determination does
not depend on tower controllers insofar as weather obs are concerned. I got
the impression from the OP that he thought that if the tower was closed
there was no weather observer. Been wrong before.

Does it have to be an NWS employee? I was under the impression that
almost
anybody can be an official weather observer, as long as they complete the
appropriate certification training.
