Its geographic location at coordinates -9.866389, -56.106298 places it in a tropical region with potentially challenging environmental conditions typical of the Brazilian interior.

Approach Considerations

Given the prevailing northerly winds, runway 3 may offer more favorable approach conditions for most operations. The consistently high visibility (average 10 statute miles) and absence of reported fog provide generally stable approach environments. Pilots should nonetheless conduct standard terrain and weather assessments specific to their aircraft and current conditions.
