The flight began with an enroute climb from Perpignan-Rivesaltes Airport in Occitanie, France. The aircraft, a Cessna Skyhawk, started its ascent from an altitude of 1,342 feet above sea level and remained at the same altitude, resulting in a negligible increase in altitude and a short distance covered. This initial climb phase lasted for just one minute and covered less than a nautical mile.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, where it maintained a steady altitude and speed for an extended period. This phase began and ended over Perpignan-Rivesaltes Airport, with the aircraft covering a distance of 98 nautical miles in 60 minutes. This steady-state flight phase allowed the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a consistent pace.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles southeast of Castelldefels in Catalonia, Spain. The descent from 1,479 feet to 875 feet above sea level was a significant decrease of 603 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This rapid descent was followed by a brief enroute level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered 3 nautical miles as the aircraft flew 2 miles southeast of Gava in Catalonia, Spain.
The final approach to runway 02 at Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was initiated from the south, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 21.0 degrees and an altitude of 173 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 02, which had a length of 2,524 meters. The threshold height was well above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 64 knots.
The touchdown point was 402 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 49 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -220 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 18 knots at 50 degrees. The crosswind was 9 knots, and the headwind was 15 knots. The total landing distance was 927 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway length. The total flight distance was 104 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 59 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 44 kilograms of fuel.

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal approach and landing. The aircraft began its final approach to runway 02 from the south, heading 21.0° at an altitude of 173 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
The pilot's approach speed was slightly above the target, reaching 64 knots, and the threshold height was well above the desired level at 74 feet agl. However, the touchdown speed of 49 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a good control of the aircraft's descent. The touchdown rate of -220 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 402 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the ideal position. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centerline, indicating that the pilot may have struggled to maintain a straight course during the final approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 11°C and a moderate headwind of 15 knots, may have contributed to the challenges faced by the pilot.
The total landing distance of 927 meters was 37% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and the runway's length of 2,524 meters. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the pilot may have had difficulty maintaining control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the Cessna Skyhawk landed safely, the pilot's performance during the final approach and landing was not ideal, with several deviations from the target parameters. These deviations may be attributed to a combination of factors, including the local weather conditions and the pilot's experience and skill level.
