The flight began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 7 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna C172, then departed from runway 27 at EGPN Dundee Airport. The takeoff distance was 381 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 65 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 1 knot was present. The pilot then entered a left-hand pattern from runway 27, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 10 seconds.

As the aircraft continued in the left-hand pattern, it encountered a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The distance covered during this phase was less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, which involved a distance of 1 nautical mile and an angle to the runway of 85.8 degrees. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 81 seconds.

The pilot then turned onto the base leg, which involved a distance of 2 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 17.4 degrees. The base leg itself covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. The final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 10 seconds, after which the aircraft began its final approach to runway 27.

The final approach was made from the east, with a heading of 251.0 degrees and an altitude of 361 feet above ground level. The aircraft was 1 nautical mile from the runway at this point. The landing was made on runway 27, which had a length of 1,390 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was a little below the target speed of 50 knots.

The touchdown distance was good, covering a distance of 160 meters. The touchdown speed was 44 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was -179 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 9.6 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 1 knot was present. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 92.12 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at Dundee Airport (EGPN) on runway 27, achieving a score of 92.1%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 251.0° at 1 nautical mile and 361 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a touchdown speed that was slightly below the target of 50 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good landing distance of 160 meters, and a touchdown speed of 44 knots, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -179 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, there was a slight deviation from the centerline, with the runway touchdown position being misaligned by 9.6 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight headwind of 1 knot, which did not significantly impact the aircraft's approach or landing. Overall, the landing was considered good, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
