The flight began with a departure roll from runway 22 at KAVX Catalina Airport. The aircraft, Sirius, took off with a takeoff distance of 195 meters, which accounted for 21% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 60 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead KAVX Catalina Airport Avalon. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 702 meters above sea level to 951 meters above sea level, an increase of 248.5 meters, in just 1 minute and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The climb was a smooth and efficient one, with the aircraft making good progress.

After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile north of KAVX Catalina Airport Avalon. The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 951 meters above sea level to 627 meters above sea level, a decrease of 323.9 meters, in 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The descent was also a smooth and controlled one, with the aircraft maintaining a steady rate of descent.

As the aircraft approached the airport for landing, it began its final approach to runway 22 from the north-east, heading 238.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 136.0 meters above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The landing itself was a good one, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a distance of 306 meters and a speed of 41 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect at 0.1 meters per second, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 58 knots, but the touchdown distance and speed were both good.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 4 nautical miles and took 5 minutes to complete, using no fuel in the process. The flight was a smooth and efficient one, with the aircraft performing well throughout the various phases of flight.

Landing on runway 22 at KAVX Catalina Airport in the Sirius
Landing Score 98.01 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft, identified as Sirius, successfully landed at KAVX Catalina Airport, achieving a high score of 98.0%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, aligning with a heading of 238.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 136.0 meters above ground level (agl).

Upon landing on runway 22, the aircraft demonstrated good control and precision. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 58 knots. This minor deviation from the target speed did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall landing performance.

The touchdown distance of 306 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 41 knots was also within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed during the final stages of the approach.

One of the most impressive aspects of the landing was the touchdown rate, which was a perfect 0.1 meters per second. This indicates that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and without any significant impact, minimizing the risk of damage to the aircraft and its occupants.

The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline during the final stages of the approach. This is a critical aspect of landing safely, as it helps to ensure that the aircraft is properly positioned on the runway and can be brought to a stop safely.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. The crosswind and headwind components were both minimal, at 1 knot each, which would have made the landing even more challenging. However, the pilot was able to successfully navigate these conditions and bring the aircraft to a safe and controlled touchdown.
