Most of the dot commands from PCI are universal in that they started off in
the original Pro Controller software and have been carried on by all
subsequent replacements. This gives a degree or uniformity across VATSIM,
IVAO and PCI.
.WX EGNS should throw up the METAR for Ronaldsway in IVAP, SB2, SB3 and PCF.
Much quicker than hunting around and launching IVAE and less strain on PC
resources.

You can get weather for your departure and arrival airports from the
IVAO UI (and indeed WX for any airport) - see user manual Ch 15, p 61,
and Ch 16, p62 (the latter under "Dot Commands", Request METAR).
