About Remada Air Base
Remada Air Base is an airport with the ICAO code DTTD. Country: Tunisia. Nearest settlement listed in the database: Remada. OurAirports classifies it as a medium-sized airport. Its ICAO code starts with the DT prefix, which marks airports in Tunisia. No IATA code is assigned, which is typical for airports without scheduled traffic. The airport reference point sits at 32°18'22"N, 10°22'56"E, at an elevation of 1,004 ft (306 m) above sea level. The applicable time zone is Africa/Tunis.

Runways of DTTD
| Threshold | Course | Length | Width | Surface |

| 02 | 20° | 2,381 m (7,812 ft) | 45 m (148 ft) | asphalt |
| 20 | 200° |
The course is derived from the runway designator (number × 10), not from a survey - the actual magnetic bearing can differ by a few degrees.
Declared distances (TORA, TODA, ASDA, LDA) are published in the national AIP - they are not part of this table.
Runway headings and wind
The thresholds are oriented as follows: 02/20 on 20° and 200° magnetic. A threshold designator is its magnetic heading divided by ten (ICAO Annex 14), so the runway axis can be read straight off the numbers.
For the 02/20 axis, wind from the east (around 110°) or from the west (around 290°) blows perpendicular to the runway and produces the largest crosswind component. Wind from around 20° or 200° acts along the runway, as a headwind or a tailwind. The decoder on this page computes those components automatically from the current METAR.
METAR and TAF for DTTD
Weather reports for Remada Air Base are published under the ICAO code DTTD. A METAR is an observation of current conditions, usually issued every 30 or 60 minutes; a TAF is a forecast for the airport area, typically covering 9 to 30 hours.
The decoder breaks the DTTD report down into its parts: wind direction and speed including gusts and variability, visibility (including CAVOK and directional minimum visibility), weather phenomena by WMO code, cloud layers with their bases, temperature and dew point, QNH pressure, and the resulting flight category - VFR, MVFR, IFR or LIFR - using FAA thresholds.
Not every airport issues its own reports; many smaller airfields have no weather station. If no current data is available for DTTD, check the nearby airports listed below.
Reports always use UTC (the Z suffix). The Africa/Tunis zone stays at GMT+01:00 year-round, so converting to local time is always the same shift.
The closest airports in the database, measured in a straight line from the reference point, are El Borma Airport (DTTR, 126 km), Gabès Matmata International Airport (DTTG, 164 km), Zuwarah International Airport (HLZW, 169 km). When no report is available for DTTD, they usually give the best approximation of conditions in the area.
