Weather Briefing

VFR

Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.

Wind Analysis

Winds are from the east-southeast (110°) at 9 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 8-knot crosswind component.

Visibility & Ceiling

Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 26°C, indicating moderate moisture 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 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: Haze, Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Thunderstorm Rain between 07:00Z and 11:00Z.

Pilot Recommendations

Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport

Overview

Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport serves the city of Malang in Indonesia, functioning as a medium-sized airport located at an elevation of 1,726 feet above mean sea level. Positioned at coordinates -7.929099, 112.714233, the airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the East Java region. Its dual runway configuration supports diverse aviation operations and regional connectivity.

Flying Conditions

Situated at a moderate elevation of 1,726 feet, the airport experiences typical tropical Indonesian meteorological conditions with potential for variable wind patterns. Pilots should anticipate potential humidity and precipitation variations consistent with the regional climate. The airport's elevated position may introduce specific atmospheric considerations during approach and landing procedures.

Notable Features
