Thanks! I'll let the metar proxy download the requested files from there
to $FG_HOME/metar/<day>/[0-9][0-9]Z.TXT and serve the most appropriate metar
data string to fgfs via the normal NOAA lookup mechanism (via HTTP). One has
then only to start fgfs with a time for which the cache has METAR data
available, and there we go.  :-)
