Hi,
I am trying to add extra airports or weather stations that I can contact on a frequency in flight for METAR data. I am unsure how to complete this in simdirector or prepar3d. I am using Active Sky 16 to generate the weather, however on my flight path there are no stations available to contact for METAR data.
Thank you
Add airports/weather stations with active AWOS/ASOS/ATIS transmission for in flight weather briefings

You will want to start with SDK documentation on how to add facility data to the runtime database:
http://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/LearningCenter.php
Go to /World/Scenery for information on file formats, schema, and compiler. Scroll down to the Facility Data / Airport and COM section for information specific to ATIS and AWOS stations.
Setting weather is described in the PDK API / Service Providers / Weather System Service section.
Hope that helps get you started.
