The flight began with a departure roll from runway 10 at FARS Robertson Airport. The Cessna 208B aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 314 meters, which was 20% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 69 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 352 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was negligible. The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 4,279 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,594 feet from the initial altitude of 1,685 feet, in just 1 minute and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase began 2 miles south east of the airport and lasted for 13 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then entered another climb phase, this time from 4,765 feet to 10,692 feet above sea level, an increase of 5,927 feet in 5 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its descent from 10,695 feet above sea level to 765 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,929 feet in just 3 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The final approach to runway 10 was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 80 degrees and at an altitude of 113 feet above ground level.

The landing was made on runway 10, which had a length of 1,537 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 75 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 142 meters, but the touchdown speed of 71 knots was slightly fast. The touchdown rate was firm at -302 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline.

The total landing distance was 296 meters, which was 19% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 13 minutes. The aircraft used 33 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 10 at FARS Robertson Airport in the Cessna 208B

Landing Score 95.86 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at FARS Robertson Airport, achieving a score of 95.9%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 80.0° at 0 nm and 113 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 10, which has a length of 1,537 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was above the target at 75 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft earlier, potentially reducing the touchdown speed. However, the touchdown speed of 71 knots was still considered fast, and the touchdown rate was firm at -302 feet per minute (fpm). A firmer touchdown rate can be a concern, as it may indicate a higher risk of damage to the aircraft.

The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a miscalculation of the landing distance. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot at 353°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind.

The total landing distance of 296 meters was 19% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown effectively. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement, such as reducing the touchdown speed and improving the runway alignment.
