The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna Skyhawk, then departed from runway 06 at Martha's Vineyard Airport (KMVY), with a takeoff distance of 273 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 56 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 4°C. The enroute climb started overhead the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 349 feet above sea level to 1,697 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,348 feet in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase began 1 mile north of Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts, and lasted for 7 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. Following this, the enroute descent phase started overhead Mashpee Neck, with the aircraft descending from 2,565 feet above sea level to 1,870 feet above sea level, a decrease of 694 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 05 at Cape Cod Airport (2B1) was made from the southwest, with a heading of 30.0°, at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,773 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with good threshold height, and the threshold speed of 39 knots was well below the target, requiring the pilot to exercise caution to avoid stalling.

The touchdown distance was good at 93 meters, with a touchdown speed of 34 knots and a touchdown rate of -199 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.4 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 3°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 0°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind.

The total landing distance was 149 meters, accounting for 24% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

Landing on runway 05 at 2B1 Cape Cod Airport in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 86.32 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at 2B1 Cape Cod Airport, achieving an impressive score of 86.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 30.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,773 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon reaching the threshold speed of 39 knots, the pilot was reminded to exercise caution to avoid stalling the aircraft. The touchdown distance of 93 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 34 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -199 feet per minute (fpm) was satisfactory.

However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft landing 4.4 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment may have been due to the pilot's judgment of the runway alignment or the aircraft's response to the crosswind. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 3°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 0°.

The total landing distance of 149 meters was only 24% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was excellent, demonstrating the pilot's skill in maintaining control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing at 2B1 Cape Cod Airport was a success, with the pilot executing a safe and controlled touchdown.
