I might be being rather stupid however I can't seem to find the data on what types mean i.e.  Turn Direction: 2. Also I can't see in the API or the docs where I can find metar and TAFs is this a feature that is not public or it it from another data  source.

Hi Alfred,

please see the "schema" link on the API documentation for each endpoint. The link is always above each "example" code section. The schema shows all possible enum values and other useful info. 

Currently OpenAIP does not provide METARs and TAFs directly. We use third party services for that to show related info on our pages. I advise to use those services directly and not use openaip as a proxy.

Thanks and let me know if you need any help.

Cheers,

Stephan
