Landing on runway 03 at EIDL Donegal Airport in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 93.77 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk has successfully landed at Donegal Airport, achieving a score of 93.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 358.0° at 1 nautical mile and 361 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, taking into account the runway length of 1,157 meters and the threshold height.

Upon reaching the threshold speed of 46 knots, the pilot was reminded to be cautious not to stall, as the speed was well below the target. However, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft, achieving a good touchdown distance of 30 meters and a touchdown speed of 44 knots. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -107 feet per minute (fpm).

Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.7 meters from the centerline, the pilot maintained good control of the aircraft. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 276°. The crosswind was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind was negligible, at 0 knots.

The total landing distance of 122 meters was only 11% of the runway length, indicating a successful and efficient landing. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase. Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing at Donegal Airport was a success, with the pilot executing a smooth and controlled approach, touchdown, and rollout.
