Arrival
This flight was conducted in a Cessna C172 aircraft, taking off from a location 15 miles east of Sumburgh Airport in Lerwick, Shetland Islands, Scotland. The initial climb phase began at an altitude of 3,427 feet above sea level and gradually increased to 2,261 feet, a rise of 1,166 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Following the climb phase, the aircraft entered a level cruise, maintaining a steady altitude and speed for 7 minutes as it covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This phase of the flight started 12 miles east of Sumburgh Airport, Lerwick.
As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its final approach to runway 27 from the east, heading in a direction of 264.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed smoothly, with a threshold speed of 67 knots and a touchdown speed of 46 knots, both of which were considered good.
The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 316 meters, and the touchdown rate was fair at -236 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.9 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance covered was 401 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 15 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 13 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGPB Sumburgh Airport, achieving a score of 95.9%. The final approach to runway 27 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 264.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 67 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a steady and controlled descent. The touchdown distance of 316 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the aircraft had landed smoothly and without excessive deceleration.
However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The touchdown speed of 46 knots was slightly lower than expected, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout. Additionally, the touchdown rate of -236 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced some deceleration during the landing. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline, which may have required some corrective action from the pilot during the rollout.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop within 31% of the runway length, with a total landing distance of 401 meters. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and precision during the landing.
