Landing on runway 25 at EDTM Mengen-Hohentengen Airfield in the Cessna C172

Landing Score 94.97 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDTM Mengen-Hohentengen Airfield, achieving a score of 95.0%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the north east, heading 245.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,239 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed descent.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 66 knots, which is a desirable outcome as it suggests a controlled and stable approach. The touchdown distance of 268 meters was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's descent and speed. However, the touchdown speed of 56 knots was a little fast, which may indicate a slight overcorrection or a need for further fine-tuning of the approach.

The touchdown rate of -114 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a gentle and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centerline, which may be attributed to a minor deviation in the approach or a slight miscalculation of the aircraft's position.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -1°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 240°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed. The total landing distance of 408 meters was 32% of the runway length, which is a reasonable outcome considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to align the aircraft with the centerline. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and judgment in managing the aircraft's approach and touchdown.
