Weather Briefing
VFREisenach-Kindel Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with clear skies.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-southwest (240°) at 7 knots. Runway 28 is favored with a 5-knot headwind and 4-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 6°C (43°F) with a dewpoint of 5°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, Fog, Thunderstorm Rain. There is a 40% probability of MVFR conditions with Showers Rain between 18:00Z and 20:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 02:00Z and 07:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Showers Rain between 09:00Z and 12:00Z.
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.

Situated at an elevation of 1,112 feet above mean sea level, the airport provides critical infrastructure for general aviation and local transportation needs in the Thuringia area.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 1,112 ft MSL suggests potential for variable weather conditions typical of central German terrain. Pilots should anticipate potential temperature and density altitude variations, particularly during seasonal transitions, which can impact aircraft performance on the 5,643-foot concrete runway.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (10/28) with a substantial length of 5,643 feet, accommodating a range of aircraft sizes and types. Its location near 50.991604, 10.479730 places it in a region characterized by moderate terrain, which may introduce localized wind and terrain-induced atmospheric conditions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28 provides directional flexibility for approaches based on prevailing wind conditions. Pilots should conduct thorough preflight planning, considering the runway's orientation and the potential for wind shifts in the Hörselberg-Hainich geographic area.
