Weather Briefing
VFRTerán Air Base is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 30,000 feet and 6 SM visibility. Note: This observation is 1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the northwest (310°) at 19 knots. Runway 35 is favored with a 15-knot headwind and 12-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 SM. The ceiling is 30000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 32°C (90°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating relatively dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
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: Light Rain, Thunderstorm Rain, Rain, Light Rain, Mist. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 20:00Z and 00:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 00:00Z and 04:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 15:00Z and 18:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Terán Air Base
Terán Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the MX AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Terán Air Base is located in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, Mexico, serving as a medium-sized airport at an elevation of 1,909 feet above mean sea level. Situated at coordinates 16.739901, -93.173301, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure in the southern region of Mexico. Its single runway (17/35) spans 7,065 feet with an asphalt surface, supporting various aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 1,909 feet MSL indicates a moderate terrain environment that can influence aircraft performance and atmospheric conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and density altitude variations typical of the region, which may impact takeoff and landing characteristics. The asphalt runway surface suggests standard operational conditions with good ground friction.
Notable Features
Terán Air Base features a single runway oriented 17/35, which provides directional flexibility for takeoffs and landings. The 7,065-foot runway length accommodates a range of aircraft types and operational requirements. Its location in Tuxtla Gutiérrez suggests proximity to varied terrain, including potential mountainous or hilly surrounding landscapes that could influence local wind patterns and approach dynamics.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17/35's substantial length of 7,065 feet offers pilots considerable operational flexibility for approach and landing procedures. The runway's orientation suggests potential wind alignment considerations, with pilots advised to assess current meteorological conditions for optimal approach planning. Standard instrument approach and departure procedures should be referenced through official aeronautical publications specific to this airport.
