Next time

Departure

Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 70 kt rather than letting speed build further.

What happened: You lifted off at 87 kt against a rotation target of 70 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.

Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 70 kt.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold 83 kt over the threshold instead of letting speed decay.

What happened: Threshold speed was 9 kt below the 83 kt target, and the sink was arrested at 31 ft while already slow, so the aircraft settled as the speed ran out, producing a firm touchdown at 230 fpm.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 83 kt at the threshold

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KMAF Midland International Air and Space Port took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 10, utilizing 838 meters, or 36% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 87 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure included a temperature of 16°C, with a wind of 10 knots at 269°, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a tailwind of 9 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from KMAF, it began its enroute climb 1 mile east of the airport, ascending from 3,835 feet above sea level to 5,583 feet, an increase of 1,749 feet in just 1 minute, while covering 3 nautical miles. The aircraft then transitioned into a level cruise 3 miles north of 7T7 Skywest Inc Midland, maintaining a steady altitude for 3 minutes and covering 10 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb, this time from 6,004 feet to 15,010 feet, an increase of 9,006 feet in 9 minutes, while covering 24 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a prolonged level cruise phase, lasting 230 minutes and covering 226 nautical miles, before beginning its descent 5 miles west of XA16 Tightwaad Air Ranch Airport Rosston.

The aircraft's descent from 14,697 feet to 2,007 feet, a decrease of 12,689 feet in 10 minutes, covered 34 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a short level cruise phase overhead Shady Shores, lasting 5 minutes and covering 12 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 16 at KADS Addison Airport from the north, aligning with the runway at 4 nautical miles and 1,135 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was initiated at 339 feet above ground level. The aircraft subsequently landed on runway 16, with a touchdown distance of 338 meters, or 38% of the runway, and a touchdown speed of 61 knots. The total landing distance was 632 meters, with a runway touchdown position misaligned by 8.8 meters from the centreline. The aircraft then rolled out, with a slight misalignment of 8.8 meters from the centreline. The total flight distance was 326 nautical miles, taking 112 minutes, and the aircraft used 12 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 16 at KADS Addison Airport from the north was executed with a heading of 153.0° at 4 nm and 1,135 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 74 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal speed profile.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited good characteristics, with a touchdown speed of 61 kt and a touchdown distance of 338 m. The touchdown rate of -286 fpm was fair, suggesting a slight impact on the aircraft's deceleration. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.8 m from the centreline, which was also reflected in the runway rollout alignment. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and winds of 10 kt at 270°, contributed to a crosswind of 9 kt and a tailwind of 4 kt.

The total landing distance of 632 m was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. Despite the slight deviations in speed and alignment, the overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, with a score of 95.5%. The landing was executed safely, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a reasonable distance.

Landing
Landing on runway 16 at KADS Addison Airport, runway length 1,896 m. Good threshold height. Threshold speed was a little below target at 74 kt.

Threshold speed was a little below target at 74 kt. Target 83 kt
Flare
64.83 %
The flare wandered off the target profile. The flare took all the sink out 31 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft settled on from there, 157 fpm of sink coming back, having crossed the threshold below target speed. Touchdown was 342 m past the threshold. Carry the speed to the flare and hold it lower - the aircraft ran out of lift before the wheels arrived, so the fix is energy on the approach, not attitude.
