METAR age on Airport Info Pages

I would like to see the METAR age on the airport information pages to assist with flight plan review before departure. Currently you have to drill down one more level to see that info and then lose context when you close the drill-down. This change would make it consistent with the WX QV.

Re: METAR age on Airport Info Pages

Furthermore, the METAR age on ADS-B seems to be when it was acquired from the towers and not when the METAR was actually published. I've seen a lot of METARs that are stated as 10 mins old but the METAR time is 1453z and it's currently 1545z or so.
