Weather Briefing
IFRCoronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 700 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north (360°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 700 feet AGL (broken). Only precision approaches may be usable depending on minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 25°C (77°F) with a dewpoint of 24°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 24 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: Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Rain between 06:00Z and 09:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast between 10:00Z 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 Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport
Overview
Coronel FAP Francisco Secada Vignetta International Airport serves Iquitos, a key city in the Peruvian Amazon region. Located at 306 ft MSL with coordinates -3.784740, -73.308800, this medium-sized airport is the primary aviation gateway to northeastern Peru's tropical rainforest area. The airport supports critical regional transportation with its 8,202 ft concrete runway.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at SPQT demonstrate predominantly favorable VFR flying environments, with 61.3% of observations in VFR conditions. Temperature variations are narrow but significant, averaging 26.3°C with a range between 22°C and 35°C. Wind patterns are consistent, with northerly winds (0°) averaging 4.2 knots and rarely exceeding 17 knots, with calm periods occurring 13.2% of the time.
Notable Features
The airport is situated in the Amazon basin, characterized by tropical terrain and surrounding dense vegetation. Its single runway (06/24) provides excellent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind of 2.5 knots. The geographic location suggests potential for rapid weather changes typical of equatorial regions.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect optimal approach conditions during December, September, and October, which represent the best VFR months. Runway 06/24 offers consistent wind characteristics, making it generally predictable for landings and takeoffs. Visibility averages 10 statute miles, with extremely rare occurrences of restricted visibility (fog present in only 1.8% of observations).
