What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was excessively high at 85 kt. at 14 %, bank angle up to 23.0 ° at 45 %, −4.19 points
Departure Roll — Liftoff speed was 32 kt at 22 %, Runway alignment max 8.07 m at 82 %, −2.13 points
Arrival Touchdown — Runway alignment max 6.56 m at 87 %, −1.88 points

Top opportunity

Keep the approach speed on target

Arrival Landing

Every knot above Vref is stored kinetic energy, and energy stored at the threshold must be dissipated in ground effect before the aeroplane will stop flying. Because kinetic energy scales with the square of speed, the excess you must dissipate grows fast. At a 45-knot approach, five knots hot is over a tenth more speed and roughly a quarter more energy to get rid of in ground effect. This is why the fix is never in the flare. It was decided three miles earlier, on final, at the airspeed indicator.

Flight narrative

Departing from Cibao International Airport, the Cessna 152 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 11, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 32 kt within 203 meters, which accounted for 8% of the runway's length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a smooth and efficient turn, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 32 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was similarly executed, taking 37 seconds to complete the maneuver. The pilot then proceeded to configure the aircraft for landing, executing a pattern downwind turn with a distance of 1 nm and an angle to the runway of 65.7°. The downwind leg was flown for 2 nm in 72 seconds, followed by a base leg turn with a distance of 1 nm and an angle to the runway of 93.7°. The final approach configuration was established, and the aircraft touched down on runway 11, with a touchdown distance of 435 m, which was 26% of the runway's length. The touchdown speed of 49 kt was slightly higher than optimal, but the touchdown rate of -97 fpm was excellent.

The post-landing rollout was characterized by good alignment, with the aircraft remaining on the centerline. The total landing distance of 678 m was within acceptable limits, and the pilot managed to conserve fuel, using only 2 kg for the entire flight, which covered a distance of 6 nm in 5 minutes. Overall, the flight demonstrated a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.

Landing Summary

The approach to runway 11 at MDST Cibao International Airport was executed with a good threshold height, allowing the aircraft to maintain a stable and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 85 kt, indicating a potential for a longer landing distance and increased workload on the pilot.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 435 m, but the touchdown speed of 49 kt was fast, resulting in a higher deceleration rate. The touchdown rate of -97 fpm was excellent, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.8 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path or a miscalculation of the landing distance.

The aircraft's rollout was executed smoothly, with a very good alignment to the centreline. The total landing distance of 678 m, which accounted for 26% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. Overall, the landing scored 75.7%, reflecting a good performance with some areas for improvement.
