          Hi! O.R. Tambo is still referencing FAJS and not FAOR. Hence no info is coming up.

            Windy uses airport's database from ourairports.com

            @Marienka
            although ourairports.com has been "informed" about the change in location indicator (a year ago)
            http://ourairports.com/comments/29235/
            they have not taken it into consideration.

              @gkikas-lgpz Dear Sir,
              Thank you for your message.
              The change from FAJS to FAOR was made in 2013, so it's been ~6 years.
              BREAKING NEWS
              I've just searched FAOR in the bar at the top of the page of windy.com and it comes up. So, it seems the problem is FAJS is on a layer above FAOR in the exact same location. When you click on the circle only FAJS is activated. Therefore, I recommend removal of FAJS completely and all should be solved.
              Also, do you know how to access METAR/SPECI observations via GTS?
              Best regards,
              Matthew
