The rest of the report
The F-35A Lightning II took off from runway 26 at CPL6 Parkland Airport, a small airfield in Alberta, Canada. The aircraft rolled down the runway for 631 meters, covering 56% of its length, before lifting off into the air at a speed of 174 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 5 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airfield, it began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 3,609 feet above sea level to 6,240 feet. This climb phase was completed in just one minute, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, dropping from 6,240 feet to 2,744 feet in two minutes, while covering 14 nautical miles.
The F-35A continued its journey, climbing again from 2,758 feet to a remarkable 48,129 feet in nine minutes, covering a distance of 105 nautical miles. This climb phase was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting five minutes and covering 79 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent once more, dropping from 48,224 feet to 3,866 feet in 16 minutes, while covering 183 nautical miles.
The F-35A then entered a final level cruise phase, lasting three minutes and covering 12 nautical miles, before beginning its final approach to runway 13 at CYQR Regina International Airport. The aircraft approached the airport from the northwest, heading 139.0 degrees at an altitude of 911 feet above ground level and a distance of three nautical miles from the runway.
The F-35A landed safely on runway 13, touching down at a speed of 146 knots and a distance of 118 meters from the threshold. The touchdown rate was slightly heavy, at -633 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The aircraft used a total of 557 meters of runway, covering just 23% of its length.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 10 knots. The F-35A rolled out of the runway in perfect alignment, using a total of 4,089 kilograms of fuel for the entire flight. The total flight distance was 401 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 37 minutes.
The F-35A Lightning II aircraft successfully landed at Regina International Airport (CYQR) on runway 13. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 139.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 911 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing, achieving a score of 92.4%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway threshold with a speed of 151 knots, which is considered good. The touchdown distance of 118 meters was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 146 knots was satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -633 feet per minute (fpm) was considered heavy, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slight bounce or hard landing.
Despite the heavy touchdown rate, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained precise control throughout the approach and landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a headwind of 10 knots at 144°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, which further contributed to the successful landing.
The total landing distance of 557 meters was only 23% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the post-landing phase. Overall, the F-35A Lightning II's landing at CYQR was a success, showcasing the aircraft's capabilities and the pilot's expertise.
