Weather Briefing
VFRHualien Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 10,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south-southwest (200°) at 8 knots. Runway 21 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 1-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 1,000 ft, scattered at 10,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 31°C (88°F) with a dewpoint of 26°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. Conditions are expected to remain VFR throughout the forecast period. Temporary VFR conditions are forecast between 19:00Z and 00:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Hualien Airport
Overview
Hualien Airport serves as a critical transportation hub located in Hualien City, Taiwan. Positioned at 52 feet above mean sea level, the airport features three runways capable of supporting medium-sized aircraft operations. Its strategic location on Taiwan's eastern coast provides essential connectivity for the regional transportation network.
Flying Conditions
The airport's coastal location suggests potential for variable wind conditions and maritime weather influences. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shear and turbulence, particularly during seasonal transition periods. The three parallel runways (03/21 series) offer operational flexibility in managing changing meteorological conditions.
Notable Features
Hualien Airport presents unique terrain characteristics with its proximity to coastal and mountainous regions of eastern Taiwan. The airport's three runways - two 9,022-foot concrete/asphalt surfaces and one 9,005-foot asphalt runway - provide substantial operational capacity. The parallel runway configuration allows for complex air traffic management and enhanced operational resilience.
Approach Considerations
Approach procedures should account for the airport's coastal positioning and potential maritime weather dynamics. The three parallel runways (03/21 series) provide multiple landing options depending on prevailing wind vectors. Pilots should conduct thorough pre-flight planning, considering the airport's elevation and potential localized wind variations.
