Weather Briefing
VFRDali Fengyi Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with overcast skies at 4,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 4973.3 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northwest (340°) at 2 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 4000 feet AGL (overcast), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 16°C (61°F) with a dewpoint of 16°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. 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 Dali Fengyi Airport
Overview
Dali Fengyi Airport serves the Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, China. Located at an elevation of 7,050 feet MSL, this medium-sized airport provides critical air transportation infrastructure for the region. The airport supports regional and potentially some limited commercial aviation operations in this mountainous part of southwestern China.
Flying Conditions
The high-altitude location at 7,050 feet presents significant performance considerations for aircraft operations. Pilots should anticipate reduced engine and lift performance due to the airport's elevated terrain. Seasonal variations in temperature and pressure will further impact aircraft performance, requiring careful weight and balance calculations.
Notable Features
The single runway 17/35 measures 8,202 feet in length and is constructed of asphalt, providing substantial landing infrastructure for medium-sized aircraft. The airport's geographical coordinates at 25.649401, 100.319000 place it in a mountainous region with complex terrain that can generate challenging wind and visibility conditions. Pilots should expect potential terrain-induced wind shear and turbulence.
Approach Considerations
The runway's orientation of 17/35 suggests potential for crosswind landings depending on prevailing wind conditions. With a significant elevation above sea level, pilots must carefully calculate approach speeds, landing distances, and aircraft performance parameters. Standard instrument approach procedures will be critical given the surrounding mountainous topography.
