The flight began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna 208B, then departed from runway 18R at YLIL Lilydale Airport. The takeoff distance was 282 meters, which accounted for 21% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 60 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 143 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile northwest of Coldstream, in the state of Victoria, Australia. During this phase, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,189 feet above sea level to 9,865 feet above sea level, an increase of 8,677 feet, in 6 minutes and covering a distance of 5 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile northwest of Christmas Hills and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead Coldstream. During this phase, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 10,265 feet above sea level to 579 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,686 feet, in 5 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 18R at YLIL Lilydale Airport was made from the north, with a heading of 189.0 degrees at an altitude of 326 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 1,324 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 66 knots. The touchdown point was 139 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 50 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -70 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as those at the time of takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 145 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 1,288 meters, which accounted for 97% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.2 meters from the centerline.

The flight concluded with taxiing from the runway to the parking area, which took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 15 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 19 minutes. The aircraft used 53 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 18R at YLIL Lilydale Airport in the Cessna 208B

Landing Score 83.2 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at YLIL Lilydale Airport, achieving an impressive score of 83.2%. The final approach to runway 18R was conducted from the north, with the aircraft heading 189.0° at 1 nautical mile and 326 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on the runway.

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 66 knots was also satisfactory, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a safe and controlled approach speed. Upon touchdown, the aircraft came to rest at a point 139 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal touchdown point but still within a safe margin.

The touchdown speed of 50 knots was good, indicating that the pilot had successfully slowed the aircraft to a safe speed upon touchdown. The touchdown rate of -70 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, demonstrating that the pilot had maintained control and precision during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the centerline of the runway as it touched down.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 5 knots from 145°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind component was also 3 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach. The total landing distance of 1,288 meters was 97% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's descent and touchdown.

However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 10.2 meters off-centerline. This deviation was relatively minor and did not compromise the safety of the landing. Overall, the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the landing, and the aircraft was safely brought to rest on the runway.
