There are many different approaches to get this done. I could do a quick and dirty version with relative ease, but I'd prefer to use an approach which will benefit from the range-based voice distortion code which will eventually make its way into the system.

Pilots will be able to toggle the system on/off within the pilot client, and then disable the sim's built-in ATIS at their discretion.
Is this still a plan, or has it been discarded?

It is still in the works. In fact, someone started doing some feasibility testing around a specific implementation that we have in mind about 2 weeks ago.

That would be GREAT...adds a lot of realism to the P3D and Xplane built in weather player. :)
