The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at YCWR Cowra Airport, achieving a high score of 98.2%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 340.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,470 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 33, which has a length of 1,634 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 54 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 212 meters, and the touchdown speed of 46 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth at -124 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.6 meters, which may require some adjustments in the approach to improve alignment. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 323°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which likely contributed to the smooth touchdown.
The total landing distance was 445 meters, which is 27% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled throughout the approach and landing. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control throughout the approach and landing.
