Weather Briefing
VFRDr. Luciano de Arruda Coelho Regional Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with broken clouds at 9,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 3.9 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the north-northeast (30°) at 4 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. The ceiling is 9000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 27°C (81°F) with a dewpoint of 25°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 12 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Mist. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Mist between 04:00Z and 11:00Z.
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.

About Dr. Luciano de Arruda Coelho Regional Airport
Overview
Dr. Luciano de Arruda Coelho Regional Airport serves the city of Sobral in northeastern Brazil. Located at coordinates -3.614488, -40.231426, this medium-sized airport provides critical regional transportation infrastructure for Ceará state. The airport operates a single runway (10/28) with an asphalt surface measuring 5,906 feet in length.
Flying Conditions
Positioned at 299 feet above mean sea level, the airport experiences typical tropical atmospheric conditions characteristic of northeastern Brazil. Pilots should anticipate potential thermal variations and potential convective activity common to the region's climate. The airport's elevation and geographic position suggest potential wind variability during different seasons.
Notable Features
The airport's runway orientation (10/28) indicates potential crosswind considerations during approach and landing. Its medium-sized classification suggests capabilities for regional commercial and general aviation operations. The asphalt runway surface provides standard landing conditions for most aircraft compatible with a 5,906-foot runway.
Approach Considerations
Approach considerations should focus on runway 10/28, which offers a substantial landing distance of 5,906 feet. Pilots should plan approaches accounting for the airport's 299-foot elevation and potential local wind patterns. Standard instrument approach procedures typical of regional Brazilian airports will likely apply.
