This flight was conducted in a Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from a location 2 miles southwest of Ajaccio, Corsica, France. The aircraft began its ascent from a height of 50 feet above sea level, reaching a maximum altitude of 1,383 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,333 feet in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise phase, where it flew overhead Ajaccio, Corsica, France, for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was characterized by a steady altitude and a consistent airspeed.
The final approach to runway 20 at Ajaccio-Napoléon Bonaparte Airport was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 209.0 degrees at an altitude of 791 feet above ground level, while being 2 nautical miles from the runway. The approach was conducted with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 67 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 330 meters, and the touchdown speed was 56 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was also good at -173 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 7.5 meters.
The local weather conditions during the flight were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from 270 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 753 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 9 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at LFKJ Ajaccio-Napoléon Bonaparte Airport with a score of 97.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 209.0° at 2 nautical miles and 791 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 270°.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 20, which has a length of 2,180 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 67 kt, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown distance was also good at 330 meters, and the touchdown speed of 56 kt was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -173 fpm was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 7.5 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The total landing distance of 753 meters was 35% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
During the rollout, the aircraft maintained very good alignment with the runway centerline, indicating a high level of control and precision from the pilot. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
