Departure
Arrival
The flight began with the Cessna Skyhawk departing from runway 16 at YCEM Coldstream Airport. After a short takeoff distance of 80 meters, which was 10% of the runway, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 53 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle breeze of 1 knot at a direction of 270 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it reached an altitude of 2,709 feet above sea level, having climbed 1,396 feet in just 2 minutes while covering 2 nautical miles. The climb took place 1 mile north-east of Mount Evelyn, marking the beginning of the enroute phase of the flight. The climb was rapid and efficient, highlighting the capabilities of the Cessna Skyhawk.
Following the climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, flying at an altitude of 2,709 feet and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles in just 2 minutes. This phase of the flight took place overhead Mount Evelyn, and then later, the aircraft continued level flight for another 7 minutes while covering 11 nautical miles, now overhead Croydon South.
As the aircraft prepared to begin its descent into Melbourne Moorabbin Airport, it started its descent from an altitude of 2,952 feet above sea level to 2,472 feet above sea level, a decrease of 481 feet in 2 minutes while covering 3 nautical miles. This descent took place overhead Kilsyth South.
Upon reaching its destination, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 17L, heading towards the airport from the north at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 1,003 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the airport were similar to those at the departure airport, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle breeze of 1 knot at a direction of 270 degrees.
The landing itself was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 46 knots and a distance of 123 meters, which was good considering the required touchdown distance. The threshold height was also reported to be satisfactory, although the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 53 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a precise and controlled approach.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 22 nautical miles, and the flight used a total of 6 kilograms of fuel.
Overall, the flight demonstrated a smooth and efficient operation of the Cessna Skyhawk, with precise control and navigation throughout the entire journey.

A Cessna Skyhawk aircraft successfully landed at Melbourne Moorabbin Airport, scoring a commendable 95.1% in its landing performance. The aircraft was approaching from the north, with a heading of 176.0 degrees at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 1,003 feet above ground level, and subsequently landed on runway 17L, a 875-meter runway.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft displayed good performance in several areas. The threshold speed, although slightly below the target, was acceptable at 53 knots, and the touchdown distance of 123 meters was also satisfactory. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 46 knots was within the desired range, and the touchdown rate of 147 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a stable and controlled descent.
The runway alignment and touchdown points of the aircraft were accurately positioned, demonstrating excellent piloting skills. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were calm, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, a gentle wind of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a slight headwind component.
The overall landing distance of 290 meters covered just 33% of the runway, and the runway rollout alignment was also excellent, indicating a precise control of the aircraft's speed and momentum during the landing process. These findings suggest that the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and attention to detail, resulting in a safe and efficient landing.
