Weather Briefing
IFRShiraz Shahid Dastghaib International Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 4 km visibility. Note: This observation is 1208.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 4 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 5°C (41°F) with a dewpoint of 5°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast between 08:00Z and 12:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions. 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.

About Shiraz Shahid Dastghaib International Airport
Overview
Shiraz Shahid Dastghaib International Airport serves the city of Shiraz in Iran, functioning as a major aviation hub in the region. Located at 29.539200, 52.589802, the airport is situated at a significant elevation of 4,927 feet mean sea level, which impacts aircraft performance and operational considerations.
Flying Conditions
The airport's high elevation at 4,927 ft MSL means pilots must carefully calculate density altitude, especially during warmer months which can significantly affect aircraft performance. With two parallel asphalt runways measuring 14,345 ft (11L/29R) and 14,051 ft (11R/29L), the airport provides substantial runway length to accommodate a wide range of aircraft operations.
Notable Features
The parallel runway configuration at Shiraz Shahid Dastghaib International Airport offers operational flexibility for simultaneous approaches and departures. The substantial runway lengths of over 14,000 feet each indicate the airport is designed to handle large commercial aircraft and potentially serve as a diversion or alternate airport for regional operations.
Approach Considerations
Runway orientation of 11/29 suggests the airport is aligned to accommodate winds typically flowing in that directional pattern. The extensive asphalt runway surfaces provide reliable touchdown zones for both commercial and potentially military aviation operations, with ample length to support safe landings across various aircraft types.
