Weather conditions at Istrana demonstrate high visual flight rule (VFR) probability at 71.3% of observations. Temperature ranges from -6°C to 30°C with an average of 9.3°C, creating generally stable flying conditions. Wind patterns predominantly come from the northeast at 45 degrees, with an average speed of 4.4 knots and occasional strong gusts up to 94 knots.
Notable Features
The airport experiences calm wind conditions 17.7% of the time, which can impact takeoff and landing procedures. Visibility averages 10 statute miles with minimal occurrences of restricted visibility, and fog is present in only 4% of observations. September, October, and January represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for aviation.
Approach Considerations
Runway 08/26 demonstrates highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility. Average crosswind is minimal at 2.4 knots, suggesting relatively straightforward approach and landing conditions. Pilots can expect consistent wind and visibility patterns that support safe and predictable flight operations.
