Weather Briefing
MVFRTachileik Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 7 km visibility. Note: This observation is 1.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (110°) at 4 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 7 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 35°C (95°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C, indicating relatively 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: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 00:00Z and 06:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 08:00Z and 12:00Z.
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.

Overview
Tachileik Airport serves the eastern border region of Myanmar, situated near Thailand at an elevation of 1280 feet MSL. Located at coordinates 20.483801, 99.935402, this medium-sized airport supports regional transportation and cross-border connectivity in a strategically important area of Southeast Asia.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation of 1280 feet MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment that can experience variable weather conditions typical of the Myanmar-Thailand border region. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal wind shifts and be prepared for potential thermal variations due to the airport's geographic positioning.
Notable Features
The single runway 04/22 provides a substantial 7002-foot bituminous surface, offering adequate length for most regional aircraft operations. The airport's location near international borders suggests potential complexity in airspace management and navigation considerations for pilots.
Approach Considerations
Runway 04/22's orientation indicates potential wind alignment variations that pilots must assess during pre-flight planning. The 7002-foot runway length provides operational flexibility for most medium-sized aircraft, with approach considerations dependent on specific aircraft performance characteristics and current meteorological conditions.
