Weather Briefing
VFRTen. Cel. Aviador César Bombonato Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 9,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (170°) at 8 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 9000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 19°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods. 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 12 hours. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.

About Ten. Cel. Aviador César Bombonato Airport
Overview
Ten. Cel. Aviador César Bombonato Airport serves Uberlândia, a significant city in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Located at 3,094 feet elevation with coordinates -18.883579, -48.225936, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation and economic needs.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at SBUL are predominantly VFR, with 85.6% of observations indicating favorable flying conditions. Wind patterns are consistently easterly at 90 degrees, averaging 7.9 knots with occasional gusts up to 22 knots. Temperature ranges from 14°C to 35°C, with an average of 23.8°C, creating generally stable atmospheric conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (4/22) measuring 6,398 feet with an asphalt surface. Its elevated position at 3,094 feet MSL provides unique terrain considerations for pilots, potentially affecting aircraft performance and approach dynamics. The geographical location suggests potential for thermal and wind variations typical of the Brazilian interior.
Approach Considerations
Prevailing easterly winds suggest runway 22 might offer more favorable approach conditions for landing. Pilots can expect excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility (fog occurs in only 1.6% of observations). September through November represent the most consistently favorable VFR months for operations.
