The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at N15 Kingston Airport, achieving a score of 97.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 90.0° at 0 nm and 324 ft above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning the aircraft with the runway threshold.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 07, which has a length of 1,232 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was above the target at 68 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 323 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 58 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilot may have applied a bit too much power during the flare.
The touchdown rate of -269 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 80°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 619 meters was 50% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot managed to stop the aircraft within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll. Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing at N15 Kingston Airport was a success, with the pilot executing a precise and controlled approach.
