This flight was conducted in a PA28 Archer II aircraft, departing from runway 17 at KDCM Chester Catawba Regional Airport. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll, taking off from the runway with a takeoff distance of 564 feet, which accounted for 11% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was recorded at 56 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it reached an altitude of 1,386 feet above sea level, increasing from an initial altitude of 1,041 feet. This climb of 346 feet took place over a distance of less than 1 nautical mile and was completed in just 1 minute. The enroute climb phase of the flight started overhead KDCM Chester Catawba Regional Airport.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile southeast of the airport. This phase of the flight lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent for landing, approaching runway 17 at 9A6 Chester Mun from the north. At an altitude of 370 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway, the aircraft was heading at 168.0 degrees.
The landing was executed successfully, with a threshold speed of 68 knots and a touchdown speed of 57 knots. The touchdown distance was 1,174 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway length. The touchdown rate was an excellent -91 feet per minute. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centerline, the runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 8 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 6 pounds of fuel during the flight.

The PA28 Archer II aircraft successfully landed at 9A6 Chester Mun airport, achieving a score of 96.7%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 168.0° at 1 nautical mile and 370 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 17.
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 68 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage airspeed during the approach. The touchdown distance of 1,174 feet was also good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively before touching down on the runway.
The touchdown speed of 57 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -91 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and without excessive deceleration. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centreline, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 64°F. The total landing distance of 1,885 feet was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the runway length of 5,002 feet. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and aligned path during the rollout phase of the landing.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach and landing phases. However, the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position may indicate a need for further practice or refinement of the pilot's landing skills.
