This flight was conducted in a Cessna C172 aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from a height of 28 feet above sea level (asl) to 854 ft asl. The climb was rapid, with an increase of 827 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then transitioned to a level cruise, which began overhead Stilton in Cambridgeshire, England, and lasted for 4 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached the final approach to runway 24 at EGSP Peterborough/Sibson Airfield, it was heading in a northeasterly direction at an altitude of 490 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 232.0° during the final approach.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, which was 239 meters in length. The touchdown point was slightly long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 54 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -202 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.5 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13°C, with a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 250°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 442 meters, which was 185% of the available runway length.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGSP Peterborough/Sibson Airfield, with a score of 81.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 232.0° at 1 nm and 490 ft above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, achieving a good threshold height and speed of 58 kt.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft used more than 50% of the available runway, resulting in a long touchdown point. However, the touchdown speed of 54 kt was considered good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and managed the descent effectively. The touchdown rate of -202 fpm was fair, suggesting that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the final stages of the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 13 °C and a gentle headwind of 4 kt at 250°. The crosswind was minimal, at 1 kt, which further contributed to a smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 442 m was 185% of the available runway length of 239 m, indicating that the pilot could have managed the landing more efficiently. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision during the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of managing the descent and touchdown point to reduce the landing distance and improve the overall score.
