The flight began with the departure roll of the F-23A aircraft from runway 05R at Edwards Air Force Base, KEDW. The aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 1,447 feet, which was 10% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 164 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were a temperature of 79 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 350 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead Edwards Air Force Base, Edwards, California, United States. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 3,333 feet above sea level to 2,832 feet above sea level, an increase of 500 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 05L at Edwards Air Force Base was made from the southwest, heading at an angle of 65.0 degrees at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 498 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 05L, which had a length of 11,982 feet. The threshold speed was 162 knots, and the touchdown point was 2,430 feet beyond the touchdown zone.
The touchdown speed was 133 knots, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -86 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 41 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 350 degrees.
The total landing distance was 6,927 feet, which was 58% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 43 feet from the centreline. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight used a total of -4,021 pounds of fuel.

The F-23A aircraft from the 7th FS successfully landed on runway 05L at Edwards Air Force Base (KEDW). The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 65.0° at 1 nautical mile and 498 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 2,430 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have slightly over-extended the landing, but the touchdown rate was excellent at -86 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 41 feet from the centreline, which could have contributed to the slightly longer landing distance.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 77°F and a gentle wind of 5 knots at 350°. The crosswind component was minimal at 5 knots, and the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions would not have significantly impacted the landing.
The total landing distance was 6,927 feet, which is 58% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it is not excessively long considering the aircraft's performance and the runway conditions. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 43 feet from the centreline, which may have contributed to the longer landing distance.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The pilot's performance was good, but there is room for improvement in terms of alignment and touchdown point.
