Weather Briefing
VFRVodochody Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 1,300 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 9 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 7 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 2-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,300 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 14°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

Its strategic location and dual runway configuration offer flexibility for various aircraft types and operational needs.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly VFR conditions, with 67.3% of observations supporting visual flight rules. The airport experiences a moderate climate with temperatures ranging from -11°C to 26°C, averaging 7.4°C annually. Seasonal variations are notable, with September through November offering the most consistent VFR weather conditions. Wind patterns are predominantly from the southwest at an average of 7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 27 knots.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways: a primary asphalt runway (10/28) measuring 8,203 feet and a secondary grass runway (11/29) extending 5,905 feet. Both runways demonstrate excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind coverage. The dual runway configuration provides operational redundancy and flexibility for different aircraft types and wind conditions. The surrounding terrain and proximity to Prague contribute to the airport's strategic aviation importance.
Approach Considerations
Crosswind conditions are relatively mild, with average crosswind components of 3.5-3.6 knots on both runways. Visibility typically exceeds 10 statute miles, with only 6.5% of observations reporting fog. Pilots should anticipate southwest winds and be prepared for potential seasonal weather variations. The consistent wind patterns and good visibility make Vodochody a reliable airport for various flight operations.
