Weather Briefing
VFRCha Eian Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with scattered clouds at 1,800 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility. Note: This observation is 1.1 hours old and conditions may have changed.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the east (80°) at 7 knots. Runway 36 is favored with a 1-knot headwind and 7-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: scattered at 1,800 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 32°C (90°F) with a dewpoint of 27°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. 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: Thunderstorm Rain. Expect variable wind speeds ranging from 3 to 15 knots. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 12:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Cha Eian Airport
Overview
Cha Eian Airport serves the Nakhon Si Thammarat province in Thailand, providing critical transportation infrastructure for the region. Located at coordinates 8.471150, 99.955597, this medium-sized airport operates at an elevation of 44 feet mean sea level, supporting regional and potential commercial aviation needs.
Flying Conditions
Southern Thailand's tropical climate influences airport conditions, with potential significant seasonal weather variations between dry and wet periods. Pilots should anticipate humidity and potential convective activity typical of the coastal geographic region, with wind patterns potentially affecting the 18/36 runway alignment.
Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (18/36) measuring 7,546 feet with an asphalt surface, suitable for medium-sized aircraft operations. Its relatively low elevation of 44 feet MSL suggests minimal terrain challenges, with coastal plain characteristics surrounding the airport environment.
Approach Considerations
Runway 18/36 provides a substantial 7,546-foot landing surface, offering flexibility for various aircraft types and approach scenarios. Pilots should evaluate wind direction and runway orientation when planning approaches, considering the single runway's longitudinal alignment and potential crosswind considerations.
