Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,123 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,123 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 160 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a quick taxi from the parking area to the runway, taking less than a minute and covering less than a nautical mile. The aircraft, an F-35A Lightning II, then departed from runway 34 at CYZF Yellowknife International Airport. The takeoff distance was 650 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 180 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of CYZF, it reached an altitude of 2,532 feet above sea level, an increase of 722 feet from the initial 1,810 feet. This climb took less than a minute and covered less than a nautical mile. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 120 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the tailwind was 3 knots.
The enroute climb started 11 miles north of CFF6 Talbot Lake, where the aircraft climbed from 3,203 feet to 5,021 feet, an increase of 1,818 feet in 2 minutes and covering 15 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began 5 miles southeast of CFF6 Talbot Lake and lasted for 18 minutes, covering 177 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began its descent 13 miles northwest of Barrhead, Alberta, where it descended from 4,909 feet to 3,311 feet, a decrease of 1,598 feet in 3 minutes and covering 33 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then started 19 miles south of CEP3 Barrhead Airport and lasted for 9 minutes, covering 27 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 08 at CPL6 Parkland Airport was made from the west, heading 96.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 930 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 08, which had a length of 1,123 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 161 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 161 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 156 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -195 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time were a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 288 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the tailwind was 5 knots.
The total landing distance was 803 meters, which accounted for 72% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 3 minutes and covered less than a nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 556 nautical miles, and the flight lasted for 76 minutes. The aircraft used 4,084 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The F-35A Lightning II aircraft successfully landed at CPL6 Parkland Airport, achieving a score of 96.2%. The final approach to runway 08 was initiated from the west, heading 96.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 930 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 161 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly faster touchdown speed of 156 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 161 meters was considered good, indicating a well-executed landing. The touchdown rate of -195 feet per minute (fpm) was also within acceptable limits, suggesting a smooth and controlled touchdown.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.5 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted from a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 288°, contributed to a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 5 knots. These conditions may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing performance.
The total landing distance of 803 meters was 72% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.8 meters from the centerline, which may have resulted from a slight deviation in the aircraft's rollout path. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score despite some minor deviations in the approach and landing phases.
