This flight was conducted in a Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from 1,500 feet above sea level (asl) to 1,466 ft asl, resulting in an increase of 34 feet in just 2 minutes while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles (nm). The climb phase began 7 miles southeast of Sandwick, located in the Shetland Islands, Scotland.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, which started 6 miles east of EGPB Sumburgh Airport in Lerwick, Shetland Islands, Scotland. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nm.
The final approach to runway 27 at EGPB Sumburgh Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 261.0° at a distance of 4 nm and an altitude of 1,311 feet above ground level (agl). The landing on runway 27, which has a length of 1,305 meters, was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was well above the target at 67 knots.
The touchdown distance was also good at 361 meters, and the touchdown speed of 52 knots was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth at -125 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.0 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, a wind speed of 2 knots at 270°, with no crosswind and a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 624 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. Unfortunately, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 115.5 meters from the centreline. After landing, the aircraft took 1 minute to taxi to the parking area from the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nm.
The total flight distance was 8 nm, and the flight duration was 7 minutes, during which the aircraft consumed 2 kg of fuel.

Enroute climb started 7 miles south east of Sandwick (Shetland Islands, Scotland). Climbing from 1,500 ft asl to 1,466 ft asl, an increase of 34 ft in 2 minutes and covering 2 nm.

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at EGPB Sumburgh Airport, achieving an overall score of 87.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 261.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,311 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, resulting in a good threshold height and a touchdown speed of 52 kt, which was within the target range.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's touchdown distance was 361 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also smooth at -125 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.0 meters from the centerline. This minor deviation was likely due to the pilot's attempt to align the aircraft with the runway, but it did not significantly impact the overall landing performance.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 270°. The crosswind component was negligible at 0 kt, while the headwind component was 2 kt. These conditions contributed to a stable and controlled approach.
The total landing distance was 624 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. This was a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and descent rate. However, the runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 115.5 meters from the centerline. This deviation was more pronounced than the initial touchdown position misalignment and may have been caused by the pilot's difficulty in maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing at EGPB Sumburgh Airport was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the ideal performance. The pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft, but there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase.
