This flight was conducted in a Bell 407 aircraft, taking off from a location near the Financial District in New York County, New York, United States. The initial climb phase began overhead the Financial District, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 979 feet above sea level (asl) to 1,668 ft asl. This climb was quite steep, with the aircraft gaining 688 ft in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 1 nautical mile (nm).

As the aircraft continued on its journey, it began its descent phase, starting overhead New York City. The descent was more gradual, with the aircraft losing 1,398 ft in 3 minutes, while again covering a distance of 1 nm. This descent phase brought the aircraft down to an altitude of 263 ft asl.

Following the descent, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes. During this time, the aircraft remained at a relatively constant altitude, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. This cruise phase likely allowed the pilot to stabilize the aircraft and prepare for the final approach to landing.

The final approach phase began overhead the Financial District, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 136 ft above ground level (agl) to land. This phase was relatively short, covering a distance of 1 nm. The aircraft's total flight distance was 3 nm, and the entire flight lasted for 8 minutes. Notably, the flight used a significant amount of fuel, with a total consumption of -59 kg.

Landing on runway 22 at LFLJ Courchevel in the Cessna 208B

Landing Score 83.96 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at LIMN Cameri Mil airport, achieving a score of 92.8%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 349.0° at 1 nautical mile and 358 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 35.

The runway at LIMN Cameri Mil has a length of 2,833 meters, and the aircraft touched down at a good threshold height. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 74 knots. The touchdown distance of 434 meters was within acceptable limits, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent.

However, the touchdown speed of 64 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to the aircraft's momentum or the pilot's decision to touch down at a slightly higher speed. Despite this, the touchdown rate of -88 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 30°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 36°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the aircraft's stable and controlled approach.

The total landing distance of 900 meters was 32% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to maintain a high degree of control and precision during the landing, and that the pilot was able to execute a smooth and controlled touchdown.

Finally, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled roll-out after touchdown. Overall, the landing was a success, and the aircraft demonstrated a high degree of control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
