The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna C172, then departed from runway 24 at LFAC Calais-Dunkerque Airport. The takeoff distance was 153 meters, which accounted for 10% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 57 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 309 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 13 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb overhead Marck, Hauts-de-France, France, and ascended from an altitude of 367 feet above sea level to 1,587 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,220 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 1 mile east of Coquelles, Hauts-de-France, France, and lasted for 61 minutes, covering a distance of 108 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 3 miles east of Bembridge, Isle of Wight, England, and descended from an altitude of 1,620 feet above sea level to 318 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,302 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 30 at EGHJ Bembridge Airport was made from the south-east, heading 298.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 271 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 30 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 98 meters, which was good. However, the touchdown speed of 59 knots was slightly above the target speed, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -103 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centreline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 319 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 393 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centreline.

The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 118 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 71 minutes. The aircraft used 44 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 30 at EGHJ Bembridge Airport in the Cessna C172

Landing Score 97.07 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGHJ Bembridge Airport, achieving a score of 97.1%. The final approach to runway 30 was conducted from the south east, with the aircraft heading 298.0° at 1 nautical mile and 271 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 height that met the required standards, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 64 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 59 knots was a little fast, which may have contributed to a slightly higher than ideal touchdown rate of -103 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the touchdown rate was still considered smooth.

The aircraft landed on the runway with a touchdown distance of 98 meters, which was deemed good. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline. This minor deviation may have been due to the pilot's attempt to compensate for the crosswind, which was relatively light at 2 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 319°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions likely had a minimal impact on the landing, given the pilot's ability to maintain control and precision throughout the approach.

The total landing distance was 393 meters, which accounted for 57% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's attempt to maintain control during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal, the pilot's ability to adapt to the local weather conditions and maintain control of the aircraft ultimately resulted in a safe and successful landing.
