This flight was conducted in a Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, taking off from a location 7 miles north of the Hamilton Island Airport in Queensland, Australia. The initial climb from 220 feet above sea level to 213 feet above sea level was a relatively short and gentle ascent, covering less than 1 nautical mile in under 1 minute. This brief climb phase was a precursor to the final approach to landing.
The final approach to landing was a critical phase of the flight, where the aircraft descended from an altitude of 207 feet above ground level to touch down on the ground. This descent was a controlled and precise maneuver, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 39 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also good, at -161 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The touchdown distance was 210 meters, which was also considered good.
Following the touchdown, the aircraft underwent a landing rollout, where it came to a stop after traveling a distance of 41 meters. The aircraft's altitude during this phase was at ground level, at 0 feet above sea level. The landing rollout was a critical phase of the flight, where the pilot had to maintain control of the aircraft and bring it to a safe stop.
The flight was conducted in a local weather environment, with a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 321 degrees. The crosswind component was 10 knots, while the headwind component was also 10 knots.
