Weather Briefing
IFRMajor Brigadeiro Trompowsky Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with overcast skies at 2,300 feet and 3 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (210°) at 2 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 3 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 2300 feet AGL (overcast), placing conditions in the MVFR category.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 14°C (57°F) with a dewpoint of 11°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 12 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: Mist. There is a 30% probability of LIFR conditions with Mist between 08:00Z and 11:00Z.
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. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Major Brigadeiro Trompowsky Airport
Overview
Major Brigadeiro Trompowsky Airport serves the city of Varginha in Brazil, situated at an elevation of 3,025 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region, supporting various aircraft operations in southeastern Brazil. The airport is positioned at coordinates -21.591375, -45.474116, offering strategic connectivity for the local and regional transportation network.
Flying Conditions
Located at a significant elevation of 3,025 feet, pilots should anticipate potential performance considerations related to density altitude, particularly during warmer periods. The airport's geographic location suggests potential for varied meteorological conditions typical of southeastern Brazilian terrain. Pilots should prepare for potential altitude-related aircraft performance impacts and conduct appropriate preflight calculations.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (04/22) with a substantial length of 6,890 feet constructed with asphalt surface. Its moderate elevation and runway length accommodate a range of aircraft sizes, providing operational flexibility for different aviation needs. The terrain surrounding the airport likely presents typical Brazilian plateau characteristics, which pilots should evaluate during approach and departure planning.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22 offers a significant 6,890-foot asphalt surface, providing ample landing and takeoff opportunities for various aircraft types. Pilots should conduct standard wind assessment and runway selection procedures, considering potential crosswind components given the single runway orientation. Standard instrument approach and departure protocols consistent with Brazilian aviation regulations should be followed.
