Weather Briefing
VFRFrancisco De Orellana Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Wind data is not available.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 23°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.

About Francisco De Orellana Airport
Overview
Francisco De Orellana Airport serves Coca, Ecuador, situated at an elevation of 834 feet MSL in the Amazon basin region. As a medium-sized airport with a 6,760-foot asphalted runway (16/34), it supports regional transportation and likely serves local oil industry and tourism operations in the eastern Ecuadorian lowlands.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly VFR conditions, with 83.4% of observations presenting clear flying weather and only 5.6% of time in challenging IFR or LIFR conditions. Temperatures consistently range between 20°C and 36°C with an average of 28.2°C, and wind patterns are stable with prevailing easterly winds averaging 3.6 knots and rarely exceeding 17 knots.
Notable Features
Located at coordinates -0.462886, -76.986801, the airport is positioned in the Amazon rainforest region with potentially complex surrounding terrain. The consistent easterly wind patterns and high visibility (average 10 statute miles) suggest relatively stable atmospheric conditions typical of the equatorial climate zone.
Approach Considerations
Runway 16/34 demonstrates favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind of 2.2 knots. Pilots can expect optimal VFR conditions particularly during September, December, and January, with consistently good visibility and minimal fog occurrence (only 2.6% of observations).
