Landing Summary

The CGS Hawk Arrow II aircraft successfully completed a landing at a location 1 mile south of Lewiston, New York, with a final approach from 1 nautical mile away at an altitude of 64 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's descent from 43 feet agl to 0 feet agl was notable for its steepness, with a decrease of 43 feet in just 4 seconds. This rapid descent suggests that the pilot was able to effectively control the aircraft's rate of descent, but it also resulted in a very heavy touchdown rate of -926 feet per minute (fpm).

The touchdown speed of 32 knots was considered good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and avoid any excessive speed during the landing. The touchdown distance of 278 feet was also deemed good, suggesting that the pilot was able to smoothly bring the aircraft to a stop. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 82°F and a relatively light wind of 4 knots at 228 degrees.

During the landing rollout, the aircraft was at an altitude of 557 feet above sea level (asl), and the distance traveled during the rollout was a relatively short 18 feet. This suggests that the pilot was able to quickly and smoothly bring the aircraft to a stop after touchdown. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and technique throughout the approach and landing phases.
