Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 56 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 66 kt, 10 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 56 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate for a circuit: seven checks where the approach path is 300 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate is an instrument-approach check and does not apply.

Plan view — the full 1,116 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 110 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 34 at RPSM Maasin Airport. The Cessna 152 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 657 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 66 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot at 270 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal, with a headwind of 0 knots. The pilot then entered a left-hand pattern, navigating the aircraft around the airport in a smooth and efficient manner. The pattern entry from runway 34 was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 32 seconds, showcasing the pilot's skill and control.
The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also executed with precision, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nautical mile. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 69 seconds to complete.
As the aircraft approached the base leg, the pilot executed a 45-degree turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The base leg was then completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds. The final turn was also executed with precision, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 23 seconds.
The final approach to runway 34 was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 343.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 414 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 38 knots and a distance of 108 meters. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -119 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 4.8 meters. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, and the total landing distance was 387 meters, accounting for 35% of the runway's length. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 5 nautical miles, taking 6 minutes to complete, and used 1 kilogram of fuel. The flight was a testament to the pilot's skill and control, as well as the aircraft's performance and handling characteristics.
The Cessna 152 aircraft successfully landed at RPSM Maasin Airport, achieving a high score of 98.4%. The final approach to runway 34 was conducted from the south, with the aircraft heading 343.0° at 1 nautical mile and 414 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target of 50 knots. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the aircraft, as the touchdown distance of 108 meters was considered good. The touchdown speed of 38 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -119 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
One minor issue was observed during the landing, as the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.8 meters from the centerline. Despite this, the pilot maintained good control and alignment during the rollout, with the runway rollout alignment being described as very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot, and no headwind component. The total landing distance of 387 meters was 35% of the runway length, indicating a safe and controlled landing.
Overall, the Cessna 152 aircraft demonstrated excellent performance during the landing at RPSM Maasin Airport, with the pilot executing a smooth and controlled approach and landing.
