Weather Briefing
VFRVila Real Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,500 feet and 9 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (120°) at 5 knots. Runway 20 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 5-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 9 km. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,500 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 15°C (59°F) with a dewpoint of 12°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. The forecast shows a transition between VFR and IFR conditions. Pilots should monitor the forecast closely and have an alternate airport plan. Expected weather includes: Patches Fog, Mist, Mist, Fog. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with Patches Fog, Mist between 06:00Z and 08:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 03:00Z and 06:00Z.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Vila Real Airport
Overview
Vila Real Airport serves the northern region of Portugal, situated in the Vila Real district at an elevation of 1,805 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the local area, supporting regional transportation and potentially serving business and general aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevated position at 1,805 ft MSL suggests potential for variable meteorological conditions, with significant altitude-related atmospheric considerations. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and density altitude variations that could impact aircraft performance, particularly during summer months when altitude effects are most pronounced.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (02/20) with an asphalt surface measuring 3,107 feet in length. Its geographic coordinates (41.274300, -7.720470) place it in a mountainous region of northern Portugal, which likely introduces complex terrain-related wind and approach dynamics for aviators.
Approach Considerations
The single runway's orientation of 02/20 suggests potential crosswind challenges depending on prevailing regional wind patterns. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions and be prepared for potential wind shear or turbulence related to the surrounding mountainous terrain when planning approaches to Vila Real Airport.
