Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 11 at the Niagara Central Dorothy Rungeling Airport, also known as CNQ3. The aircraft, a CGS Hawk Arrow II, took off with a takeoff distance of 43 feet, which was just 2% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 42 knots, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 228 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it began its enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 1,359 feet above sea level in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The climb started overhead the airport in Welland, Ontario, Canada, and continued until the aircraft reached its cruising altitude. The enroute level cruise then began, lasting for 6 minutes and covering a distance of 8 nautical miles, 1 mile west of Welland.

After leveling off, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles southwest of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. The descent was from an altitude of 1,657 feet above sea level to 1,125 feet above sea level, a decrease of 532 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then resumed, lasting for 7 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles, 1 mile southwest of Niagara Falls.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to landing, starting 1 mile south of Lewiston, New York, United States. The descent was from an altitude of 64 feet above ground level to 0 feet above ground level, a decrease of 43 feet in just 4 seconds. The touchdown speed was 32 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was very heavy at -926 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was also good at 278 feet.

After touchdown, the aircraft began its landing rollout, coming to a stop 1 mile south of Lewiston. The altitude at the end of the rollout was 557 feet above sea level, and the distance traveled was just 18 feet. The total flight distance was 16 nautical miles, and the flight used 3 pounds of fuel. The local weather conditions remained the same throughout the flight, with a temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 228 degrees.

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.
