So basically, could the metar parser be edited to load multiple metars in Advanced mode?
Not. AW will overwrite your inputs automatically after some seconds.
(However, once you are in offline mode, there's no reason to think in terms of METAR, it's a poor way to specify weather - a GUI that allows to actually input a weather situation in terms of e.g. fronts and high and low pressure regions would be far superior).

OK, FG will overwrite that METAR information. Are You OK with this statement ?
Does anyone happen to know where the code that saves METARs to the property tree and switches the active ones/interpolates from then is at?
