Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (90°) at 8 knots. Runway 11/29 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 3-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 5 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,400 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 23°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. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Light Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 09:00Z 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.

About Husein Sastranegara International Airport
Overview
Husein Sastranegara International Airport serves the city of Bandung, Indonesia, positioned at an elevation of 2,436 feet above mean sea level. Located at coordinates -6.900630, 107.575996, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for West Java's regional transportation needs. The airport supports both civilian and potential military aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Bandung's elevated location at 2,436 ft MSL influences its meteorological characteristics, typically presenting cooler temperatures compared to coastal Indonesian regions. Pilots should anticipate potential orographic effects due to the surrounding mountainous terrain. Seasonal wind patterns will impact approach and departure procedures, particularly on the primary runway 11/29.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (11/29) measuring 7,381 feet in length, constructed with asphalt surface. Its significant elevation and proximity to mountainous terrain require careful navigation and situational awareness. The geographical positioning demands precise altitude management during all phases of flight.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29's substantial 7,381-foot length provides flexibility for various aircraft types operating at this elevation. Pilots should carefully assess wind direction and terrain interactions when planning approaches, considering the airport's significant above-sea-level elevation. Standard instrument approach procedures will need to account for the surrounding topographical features of the Bandung region.
