Arrival Final 4 — Approach angle 5.5 ° at 0 %, −1.32 points

Next time

Departure

Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 65 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.

What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Ease the descent rate on final, flying a shallower path back onto the target glidepath angle rather than diving steep.

What happened: On final, the approach was flown at a steeper angle than the target glidepath for that segment.

Watch for: Watch the VSI and glidepath/VASI indication on final, keeping the descent angle matched to the target rather than steepening.

See Arrival Final 1

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 27 at AYNZ Nadzab Airport, located in Nadzab, Papua New Guinea. The Cessna C172 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 680 meters, which was 28% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 83 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269°.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 5 miles west of Nadzab Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,226 feet above sea level to 9,710 feet above sea level, an increase of 8,485 feet in 16 minutes. The climb covered a distance of 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and began a short cruise, lasting 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles, before resuming its climb.

The aircraft continued to climb and level off several times, with each climb segment lasting 2 minutes and covering 3 nautical miles. The final climb segment began 1 mile east of Wau, Papua New Guinea, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 12,152 feet above sea level to 12,611 feet above sea level, an increase of 460 feet in 2 minutes.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, first from 12,081 feet above sea level to 11,380 feet above sea level, a decrease of 701 feet in 2 minutes, and then from 11,493 feet above sea level to 6,262 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,231 feet in 7 minutes. The aircraft then leveled off and began a long cruise, lasting 18 minutes and covering 27 nautical miles.

The final descent began 10 miles northwest of Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, and took the aircraft from an altitude of 5,866 feet above sea level to 1,849 feet above sea level, a decrease of 4,018 feet in 7 minutes. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 14L at AYPY Port Moresby Jacksons International Airport, flying from the northwest at a heading of 144.0° and an altitude of 1,720 feet above ground level.

The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 267 meters and a touchdown speed of 44 knots. However, the touchdown rate was very hard, at -533 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269°.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 185 nautical miles, and the flight used 49 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 14L at AYPY Port Moresby Jacksons International Airport in the Cessna 172
Landing Score 80.25 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at AYPY Port Moresby Jacksons International Airport, with a score of 80.2%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 144.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,720 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course for runway 14L, which has a length of 2,760 meters.

Upon reaching the threshold, the aircraft's height was significantly above the target, indicating a slight delay in the descent. However, the threshold speed of 47 knots was well below the target, necessitating caution to avoid stalling the aircraft. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 267 meters, and the touchdown speed of 44 knots was also within acceptable limits.

The touchdown rate, however, was very hard at -533 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component.

The total landing distance of 652 meters was 24% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, while there were some minor issues with the approach, the pilot demonstrated good control and a safe landing.
