Weather Briefing
VFRBatajnica Air Base is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east-southeast (120°) at 3 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 11°C (52°F) with a dewpoint of 9°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
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: Showers Rain, Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Showers Rain between 05:00Z and 08:00Z. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 13:00Z and 17:00Z.
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. 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 Batajnica Air Base
Batajnica Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the RS AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.
Overview
Batajnica Air Base is a medium-sized airport located in Zemun, Serbia, situated at an elevation of 265 feet MSL. The airport features three runways with varying surface types, including a grass runway (12/30) and two asphalt runways (12L/30R and 12R/30L). Its strategic location near Belgrade provides critical military and potentially civilian aviation infrastructure.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Batajnica demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing 59.8% of the time. Pilots can expect predominantly easterly winds averaging 6.7 knots, with temperature ranges from -15°C to 32°C. The airport experiences minimal low visibility, with fog present only 16.1% of the time, and maintains consistently good visibility averaging 10 statute miles.
Notable Features
The airport's three runways offer substantial operational flexibility, with lengths ranging from 3,232 feet to 8,181 feet. All three runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind of 2.9 knots. The varied runway surfaces (grass and asphalt) provide additional operational adaptability for different aircraft types.
Approach Considerations
Seasonal flying is most favorable during September, October, and January, offering optimal visual meteorological conditions. Pilots should anticipate easterly wind patterns and prepare for potential temperature extremes. The multiple runway configurations provide excellent wind alignment options, with consistent crosswind characteristics across all runways.
