The flight departed from Iles Sous-le-Vent, French Polynesia, and began its enroute climb 1 mile north of the reference point BR02. The aircraft, a Cessna Skyhawk, ascended from an initial altitude of 50 feet above sea level to 78 feet, a net increase of 27 feet over a 2-minute period, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This initial climb phase set the stage for the subsequent phases of the flight.
As the aircraft approached Bora Bora Airport, it began its final approach to runway 29 from the southeast, aligning itself with a heading of 313.0 degrees at an altitude of 67 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 61 knots, which was deemed satisfactory. The touchdown distance of 158 feet was also within acceptable limits, although the touchdown speed of 60 knots was slightly above the optimal range. The touchdown rate of -210 feet per minute was fair, but the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 17 feet.
The landing distance of 1,885 feet accounted for 38% of the available runway length, which was 4,900 feet. However, the runway rollout alignment was significantly misaligned from the centreline by 126 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 59 degrees Fahrenheit, with a wind speed of 6 knots from 270 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported.

The Cessna Skyhawk touched down on runway 29 at NTTB Bora Bora Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the pilot to maintain a stable approach. The threshold speed was well-managed at 61 kt, indicating a smooth transition from the approach to the touchdown phase. However, the touchdown speed of 60 kt was slightly above the optimal range, resulting in a fair touchdown rate of -210 fpm.
The aircraft's touchdown distance of 158 ft was within acceptable limits, but the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 ft from the centreline. This deviation was likely due to the pilot's attempt to compensate for the crosswind, which was 4 kt, and the headwind, which was 5 kt. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 59 °F and a wind speed of 6 kt at 270 °, did not pose significant challenges to the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,885 ft was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. However, the runway rollout alignment was significantly misaligned by 126 ft from the centreline, suggesting that the pilot may have lost control of the aircraft's direction during the rollout phase. Despite these deviations, the overall score of 83.8% reflects a competent landing performance, with room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and rollout alignment.
