Flight narrative

The F-35A Lightning II took off from runway 31 at KPIR Pierre Regional Airport, a small regional airport in Pierre, South Dakota, United States. The aircraft's departure roll was smooth, and it lifted off the ground at a speed of 171 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were warm, with a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, and a moderate wind blowing at 18 knots from a direction of 359 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it quickly gained altitude, reaching a height of 48,492 feet above sea level in just 4 minutes. This impressive climb was achieved while covering a distance of 25 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and began its enroute cruise, which lasted for 26 minutes and covered a distance of 265 nautical miles.

During the cruise phase, the aircraft flew over various locations in South Dakota and Manitoba, Canada. It then began its descent, starting 5 miles north of Onida, South Dakota, and continued to descend until it reached a height of 45,028 feet above sea level. The descent was relatively short, lasting only 2 minutes and covering a distance of 16 nautical miles.

The aircraft then leveled off again and began another cruise phase, this time lasting for 4 minutes and covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. However, this cruise phase was short-lived, as the aircraft began its final descent, starting 7 miles northeast of Winkler, Manitoba. This descent was the longest of the flight, lasting 3 minutes and covering a distance of 31 nautical miles.

As the aircraft descended, it eventually reached a height of 2,226 feet above sea level and began its final approach to runway 13 at CYWG Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport. The approach was made from the northwest, with the aircraft heading at 137.0 degrees and flying at an altitude of 1,406 feet above ground level.

The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 146 knots. However, the touchdown rate was heavy, at -874 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.4 meters. The total landing distance was 1,472 meters, which was 55% of the runway length.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 2 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 358 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 4,088 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which lasted for 43 minutes.

Landing Summary

The F-35A Lightning II aircraft successfully landed at Winnipeg / James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (CYWG) on runway 13. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 137.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,406 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good approach speed, touching down at 153 knots, which is within the target threshold speed.

However, the touchdown point was slightly beyond the designated touchdown zone, located 69 meters past the threshold. The touchdown speed of 146 knots was also within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Unfortunately, the touchdown rate was quite heavy, at -874 feet per minute (fpm), which may have contributed to the slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, being 5.4 meters off the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C and a gentle wind of 11 knots from 300°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the tailwind component was 11 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's ground speed and alignment during the landing roll. Despite these factors, the aircraft's runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a high level of control and stability during the landing phase.

The total landing distance of 1,472 meters was 55% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and maintaining control throughout the rollout phase. However, the heavy touchdown rate and slightly misaligned touchdown position may be areas for improvement in future landings.
