The flight began with a departure roll from runway 29 at the Richmond Airport, where the aircraft, a Microsoft PA28-236 Dakota, took off with a takeoff distance of 488 feet, which accounted for 24% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 62 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 78 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 233 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both 6 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile west of the runway, rising from an altitude of 1,051 feet above sea level to 3,459 feet above sea level. This climb of 2,408 feet was achieved in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile north of Carolina, Rhode Island, descending from 3,441 feet above sea level to 833 feet above sea level. This descent of 2,608 feet was completed in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.

The final approach to runway 11 at the Richmond Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 99.0 degrees at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 703 feet above ground level. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 2,002 feet, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was slightly below the target speed at 70 knots.

The touchdown point was located very far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was 60 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -83 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 13 feet. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 9 knots from a direction of 233 degrees, with a crosswind component of 6 knots and a tailwind component of 6 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,642 feet, which accounted for 82% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight used 7 pounds of fuel.

Landing on runway 11 at 08R Richmond Airport in the microsoft-aircraft-pa28-236-dakota [FRNGS]

Landing Score 86.49 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, a Microsoft-simulated PA28-236 Dakota, successfully landed on runway 11 at 08R Richmond Airport. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 99.0° at an altitude of 703 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed of 70 knots, which is a desirable outcome as it indicates a controlled descent. However, the touchdown point was quite far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available 2,002-foot runway length. This may be attributed to the aircraft's speed and the pilot's decision to flare late, resulting in a longer rollout.

The touchdown speed of 60 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 13 feet from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the pilot's approach and landing technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 77°F and a wind speed of 9 knots from 233°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 6 knots, which is relatively minimal and should not have significantly impacted the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,642 feet was 82% of the available runway length, which is a relatively long rollout. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown point and alignment.
