This flight involved an AT802 Firefighting aircraft, which began its enroute climb from a starting point 1 mile southwest of La Teste-de-Buch in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The aircraft started climbing from an altitude of 1,500 feet above sea level (asl) and reached a height of 1,430 ft asl, an increase of 70 ft in just 1 minute, while covering a distance of 1 nautical mile (nm).
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, which started 2 miles southwest of La Teste-de-Buch. This phase of the flight lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nm. The aircraft then began its final approach to landing at the LFBC Cazaux (BA 120) Air Base Cazaux in La Teste-de-Buch, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The approach started at a distance of 1 nm from the air base and descended to an altitude of 1,190 ft above ground level (agl).
As the aircraft approached touchdown, it descended from an altitude of 45 ft agl to 0 ft agl in just 10 seconds. The touchdown occurred 2 miles southwest of the LFBC Cazaux air base, with a touchdown speed of 54 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was firm at -385 feet per minute (fpm), and the touchdown distance was also good at 321 meters.
The local weather conditions during the flight included a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 3 knots at 160°. The crosswind was 1 kt, while the headwind was 3 kt. The total flight distance was 6 nm, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 7 kg of fuel during the flight.

The AT802 Firefighting aircraft successfully landed at Air Base Cazaux in La Teste-de-Buch, France, with a score of 82.8%. The final approach to landing was conducted from 1 nautical mile to 1 nautical mile at an altitude of 1,190 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was approaching the touchdown point 2 miles southwest of the air base.
As the aircraft descended from 45 feet agl to 0 feet agl, it experienced a significant decrease in altitude over a short period of 10 seconds. This rapid descent suggests that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a smooth landing. The touchdown speed of 54 knots was considered good, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed during the approach.
The touchdown rate of -385 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, which is a desirable characteristic for a safe landing. A firm touchdown rate helps to reduce the risk of the aircraft bouncing or skidding upon contact with the runway. The touchdown distance of 321 meters was also considered good, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and altitude during the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 160 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions suggest that the pilot had a relatively easy time navigating the aircraft during the approach and landing. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft.
