What went well

Touched down at -209 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 444 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 0.60 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, Threshold height at 86 ft agl was significantly above target at 32 %, −2.04 points
Arrival Final 1 — Approach angle 5.2 ° at 0 %, Heading variation -0.1 ° at 83 %, −1.12 points
Departure Climb 2 — bank angle up to 14.4 ° at 67 %, −0.85 points

Next time

Departure

Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.

What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 2.1°, more roll than the climb out called for.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb

See Departure Climb 2

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.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 350 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 0 knots.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead EDLW Dortmund Airport and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began a climb from 1,057 feet above sea level to 3,272 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,215 feet, in 3 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles.

The climb phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started overhead Werne and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 3,458 feet above sea level to 5,118 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,660 feet, in 3 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles.

The climb phase was followed by a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles east of Sendenhorst and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then began a descent phase, which started 3 miles north west of Ennigerloh and descended from 5,182 feet above sea level to 4,276 feet above sea level, a decrease of 906 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles.

The descent phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles west of Ennigerloh and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another descent phase, which started 3 miles west of Welver and descended from 3,975 feet above sea level to 1,727 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,248 feet, in 5 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 24 at EDLW Dortmund Airport was made from the north east, with a heading of 248.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,311 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 421 meters, a touchdown speed of 50 knots, and a touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 320 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 0 knots.

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDLW Dortmund Airport, achieving a score of 77.5%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 248.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,311 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 24, which has a length of 1,397 meters. The threshold height at 86 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than expected when reaching the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed of 64 knots was only slightly above the target, suggesting that the pilot maintained a relatively smooth approach.

The touchdown distance of 421 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot managed to slow down the aircraft effectively before touching down. The touchdown speed of 50 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -200 feet per minute (fpm) was good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a controlled descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline during the final approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 320°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was negligible at 0 knots.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision during the final approach and touchdown. However, the significantly above-target threshold height may indicate a need for further refinement in the pilot's approach technique.
