This flight was conducted in a Cessna Skyhawk, a popular single-engine aircraft. The pre-flight taxiing process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a short distance of less than 1 nautical mile (nm) from the parking area to the runway. The aircraft departed from runway 25 at F62 Hayfork, with a takeoff distance of 219 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 58 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 5 knots blowing from the west (270 degrees). There was no crosswind, but a 5-knot headwind was present. The pilot successfully navigated a left-hand pattern entry from runway 25, covering a distance of less than 1 nm in just 11 seconds.

As the aircraft continued its left-hand pattern, it encountered a crosswind of 0 knots, but the pilot still had to contend with the 5-knot headwind. The distance covered during the crosswind phase was less than 1 nm, and it took 23 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nm. This maneuver was completed in 75 seconds.

The final approach to runway 25 was made from the east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 232.0 degrees and an altitude of 707 feet above ground level (agl). The total distance covered during the final approach was 1 nm. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 51 knots and a distance of 163 meters. The touchdown rate was -166 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The pilot's performance was impressive, considering the challenging weather conditions. The aircraft's fuel consumption was minimal, with a total of 1 kilogram used during the flight. The total distance covered was 4 nm, and the flight duration was approximately 8 minutes. Overall, the flight was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience in navigating the Cessna Skyhawk in various weather conditions.

Landing on runway 25 at F62 Hayfork in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 90.6 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk has successfully landed at F62 Hayfork, achieving a score of 90.6%. The aircraft's final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 232.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 707 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating that the pilot maintained a safe distance from the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 61 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the landing phase.

The touchdown distance of 163 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance from the point of touchdown. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 51 knots was within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's speed during the landing phase.

The touchdown rate of -166 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop in a controlled manner. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to align the aircraft with the runway centerline during the landing phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was negligible, while the headwind component was 5 knots, which was likely beneficial for the landing.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills during the approach and landing phase.
