The flight began with a departure roll from runway 26 at CYTB Tillsonburg, a small airport in Ontario, Canada. The aircraft, a Douglas DC-3, accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 1,651 feet, which was 37% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 73 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions consisting of a temperature of 60°F and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile southwest of the CNQ4 Tillsonburg Airport, where the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,713 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 3,134 feet, a gain of 1,422 feet in just 3 minutes. During this phase, the aircraft covered a distance of 5 nautical miles.
After reaching the desired altitude, the enroute descent phase commenced 4 miles north of the CNQ4 Tillsonburg Airport. The aircraft descended from 3,127 feet above sea level to 1,606 feet, a decrease of 1,521 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase marked the beginning of the aircraft's return to the airport.
The final approach to runway 26 at CYTB Tillsonburg was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft heading 248.0° at an altitude of 703 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold. The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target speed of 75 knots, at 74 knots. The touchdown distance was good, covering a distance of 112 feet, and the touchdown speed was also within acceptable limits at 74 knots. The touchdown rate was perfect, with a rate of -29 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was spot on.
The total landing distance was 2,149 feet, which was 48% of the runway's total length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions during the landing phase were similar to those encountered during the takeoff phase, with a temperature of 59°F and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270°.
The flight concluded with a total distance of 11 nautical miles, which was covered in 8 minutes. The aircraft used a total of -2 pounds of fuel during the flight, indicating a slight fuel consumption. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly, with the aircraft performing well within the expected parameters.

The Douglas DC-3 aircraft successfully landed at CYTB Tillsonburg, achieving a score of 96.5%. The final approach to runway 26 was initiated from the north-east, heading 248.0° at 1 nautical mile and 703 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course, taking advantage of the favorable wind conditions, with a 2-knot headwind and a negligible crosswind of 1 knot.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a threshold speed slightly below the target at 75 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 112 feet, and the touchdown speed of 74 knots was within acceptable limits. The most impressive aspect of the landing was the touchdown rate, which was perfect at -29 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and evenly, without any sudden deceleration.
The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 59°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 270°. The runway length of 4,481 feet provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely. The total landing distance of 2,149 feet was 48% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 26 feet off the centerline. This minor misalignment may have been due to a slight miscalculation of the aircraft's position or a minor deviation in the pilot's control inputs. Nevertheless, the landing was overall successful, and the aircraft came to a stop safely on the runway.
Overall, the Douglas DC-3 aircraft demonstrated excellent landing skills, taking into account the favorable weather conditions and the aircraft's capabilities. The minor deviation in the runway rollout alignment was the only notable issue, but it did not compromise the safety of the landing.
