In the Fetch live aloft data
<http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:Fetch_live_aloft_data> instructions,
the Jeppesen weather service is used. However, the weather data is no
longer free, and the article needs to be updated. The NOAA's Aviation
Weather Center has free text winds aloft data for all available airports
in one URL. However, the format used here is different than the format
used in the script. Could someone update the wiki page to use the format
used by the NOAA? I've made a command to get the text weather data from
the page:

|wget --quiet --output-document=-
"http://aviationweather.gov/products/nws/all"; | sed '1,/000/d' | sed
'/</,$d'|
