This is the bot that lives in The Hangar - for more info, ping @DannyBeckett.

So far, using 3-letter IATA or 4-letter ICAO airport codes, you can try:

• !!weather KJFK to get English weather info for New York JFK airport
• !!metar LPL to get raw METAR data for Liverpool John Lennon airport
• !!taf AMS to get raw TAF data for Amsterdam Schiphol airport
• !!distance LHR FRA to get approximate distances & flying times between London Heathrow and Frankfurt

You can also try:

• !!TeachMeToFly

Leave an answer here with ideas for new commands! Here are some that have been suggested:

• Aerodrome data - airnav or worldaerodata.com
• Weather frequencies & phone numbers
