Wind Analysis

Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.

Visibility & Ceiling

Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.

Temperature & Moisture

Temperature is 5°C (41°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 21 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: Mist, Light Showers Rain, Fog. There is a 40% probability of IFR conditions with Mist between 03:00Z and 05:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Light Showers Rain between 10:00Z and 18:00Z. There is a 40% probability of LIFR conditions with Fog between 21:00Z and 00:00Z.

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 Swidwin Military Air Base

Swidwin Military Air Base is a military facility. Civilian access may be restricted or require Prior Permission (PPR). Pilots should consult the PL AIP for current access procedures and restrictions.

Overview

Swidwin Military Air Base (EPSN) is a medium-sized military airport located in northwestern Poland. Situated at an elevation of 394 feet above mean sea level, the base serves military aviation operations in the region. Its strategic location provides important infrastructure for Polish military aerial activities.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 394 feet suggests a relatively low-altitude environment with potentially moderate terrain interactions. Being in northern Poland, the location experiences variable weather conditions typical of maritime and continental climate influences. Pilots should anticipate seasonal variations that could impact flight operations, particularly during winter and transitional seasons.

Notable Features

The primary runway 11/29 is a substantial concrete surface measuring 8,200 feet in length, capable of supporting medium to heavy military aircraft. Its orientation allows for flexible approaches depending on prevailing wind conditions. The expansive runway length provides significant operational flexibility for various aircraft types and mission profiles.

Approach Considerations

Runway 11/29's significant length of 8,200 feet offers pilots considerable landing and takeoff margins. The concrete surface provides consistent braking characteristics across different weather conditions. Pilots should plan approaches considering the runway's east-west orientation and potential wind variations at the 394-foot elevation.
