Weather Briefing
MVFRBadr Air Base is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 6 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (350°) at 16 knots. Runway 08L/26R is favored with a 0-knot headwind and 16-knot crosswind component. Student pilots and low-time aviators should exercise caution.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 6 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of -9°C, indicating very 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 30 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: SA/DU. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 6 to 18 knots. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 12:00Z and 16:00Z. There is a 30% probability of IFR conditions with SA/DU between 12:00Z and 15:00Z. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 09:00Z and 18:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Badr Air Base
Badr Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the IR AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Badr Air Base is located near Esfahan, Iran, serving as a medium-sized airport at a significant elevation of 5,242 feet above mean sea level. The airport supports regional aviation operations with two asphalt runways, offering substantial infrastructure for military and potentially civilian aircraft movements.
Flying Conditions
At 5,242 feet MSL, Badr Air Base experiences altitude-related performance considerations for aircraft operations. The high elevation will impact aircraft climb performance, engine efficiency, and fuel consumption, requiring careful flight planning and weight management for incoming and departing aircraft.
Notable Features
The airport features two runways with significantly different lengths: 08L/26R at 10,920 feet and 08R/26L at 1,467 feet. The longer runway provides substantial operational flexibility, while the shorter runway may be more restrictive for certain aircraft types and operational requirements.
Approach Considerations
With runways oriented approximately 080/260 degrees, pilots should anticipate potential crosswind conditions during approach and landing. The longer 10,920-foot runway (08L/26R) provides the primary operational surface, offering ample length for most aircraft types operating at this elevation.
