Weather Briefing
MVFRAl Anad Air Base is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,000 feet and 8 km visibility. Note: This observation is 1.7 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (110°) at 8 knots. Runway 07/25 is favored with a 6-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 21°C, indicating moderate moisture conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.

About Al Anad Air Base
Al Anad Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the YE AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Al Anad Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in Yemen at coordinates 13.174700, 44.765099, positioned at 900 feet above mean sea level. The airport serves as a strategic aviation facility in the Al Anad region, supporting various operational requirements in the area. Its single runway (07/25) extends 9,250 feet and is constructed with asphalt surface.
Flying Conditions
Located at an elevation of 900 ft MSL, Al Anad Air Base experiences typical regional terrain and atmospheric conditions characteristic of its geographical position. Pilots should anticipate potential wind variations across the runway's 07/25 orientation, which could influence approach and departure strategies. Temperature and atmospheric stability can vary significantly due to the airport's elevation and regional climate.
Notable Features
The airport's 9,250-foot asphalt runway provides substantial operational flexibility for medium-sized aircraft. Its geographical coordinates suggest a terrain environment that might present complex navigational considerations for incoming and outgoing flights. The significant runway length enables diverse aircraft operations and provides safety margins for various aviation activities.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25's extensive length of 9,250 feet allows for versatile approach options with considerable margin for safe landings and takeoffs. Pilots should carefully assess prevailing wind conditions and utilize the full runway length when planning approaches. Standard instrument approach procedures will be critical given the airport's geographical location and elevation.
