Weather Briefing
IFRPanguilemo Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 6,000 feet and 3 km visibility. Note: This observation is 7.9 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northeast (50°) at 10 knots. Runway 03/21 is favored with a 9-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 3 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 4000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 9°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Panguilemo Airport
Overview
Panguilemo Airport serves the Talca region in Chile, located at coordinates -35.377800, -71.601700. As a medium airport situated at 371 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the central Chilean area. The airport supports regional transportation and likely serves general aviation and potentially some commercial operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's moderate elevation at 371 ft MSL suggests relatively stable atmospheric conditions typical of central Chile's temperate climate. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal variations in temperature and wind patterns that could affect aircraft performance. The airport's geographical position indicates potential for variable weather conditions influenced by nearby terrain and coastal proximity.
Notable Features
Panguilemo Airport features a single runway (03/21) with an asphalt surface measuring 3,660 feet in length. The runway orientation suggests potential crosswind considerations during approaches and departures. The surrounding terrain and moderate elevation indicate a relatively straightforward operational environment for medium-sized aircraft.
Approach Considerations
Runway 03/21's length of 3,660 feet accommodates medium-sized aircraft with reasonable operational flexibility. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and runway alignment when planning approaches, considering potential crosswind components. Standard instrument approach procedures and visual navigation techniques would be applicable given the airport's geographical characteristics.
