This flight was conducted in a Cessna C172 aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from the Arnsberg-Menden Airfield in Arnsberg, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The climb began at an altitude of 905 feet above sea level and reached 1,603 feet above sea level, an increase of 698 feet, in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, also starting from the same location. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at the Arnsberg-Menden Airfield, approaching from the north-east at a heading of 225.0 degrees.

Landing on runway 23 at EDLA Arnsberg-Menden Airfield in the Cessna C172

Landing Score 95.36 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EDLA Arnsberg-Menden Airfield, achieving a high score of 95.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 225.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 689 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing safely on runway 23.

The runway at EDLA Arnsberg-Menden Airfield has a length of 910 meters, providing a suitable surface for the Cessna C172 to touch down. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude when crossing the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 62 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach.

The touchdown distance of 119 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the threshold. The touchdown speed of 52 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's speed during the landing. The touchdown rate of 19 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and without excessive deceleration.

However, there was a slight deviation from the centreline, with the runway touchdown position being 3.2 meters off-centre. This minor deviation may be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error, but it did not appear to have any significant impact on the safety of the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as having a temperature of 11°C, which may have affected the aircraft's performance and handling characteristics. However, the pilot was able to adapt to these conditions and still achieve a safe and successful landing. Overall, the landing was considered to be good, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
