What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was excessively high at 105 kt at 0 %, Flare profile at 46 %, −4.64 points
Arrival Approach — 300 ft gate 71 %, −3.17 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,368 m at 0 %, Runway alignment max 15.14 m left at 56 %, −3.05 points

Next time

Departure

Start bringing the nose up as the speed reaches 61 kt, not after it.

What happened: You started the rotation at 71 kt, 10 kt past the 61 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 61 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

Departure from Cibao International Airport's runway 29 was initiated with a departure roll, utilizing 56% of the available runway length of 2,606 meters. The aircraft, a Cessna 152, accelerated to a liftoff speed of 72 knots, clearing the ground at a distance of 1,461 meters. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a gentle headwind of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it proceeded to complete a series of standard maneuvers, including a left-hand pattern entry, crosswind turn, and downwind leg. The aircraft's performance during these phases was satisfactory, with the left-hand pattern entry and crosswind turn being completed in 32 and 19 seconds, respectively. The downwind leg, which spanned a distance of 2 nautical miles, was flown at an angle of 71.9 degrees to the runway, while the base leg turn and final approach were executed with precision. The aircraft then aligned itself with the runway and began its final approach, descending from an altitude of 427 feet above ground level (agl) at a heading of 283.0 degrees.

The landing on runway 29 was completed with a touchdown point that utilized more than 50% of the available runway length. The aircraft's touchdown speed of 48 knots was higher than the target speed, resulting in a smooth touchdown rate of -109 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 15.1 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance of 11 nautical miles was covered in 6 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 2 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 29 at MDST Cibao International Airport from the east was initiated at 1 nm and 427 ft above ground level, heading 283.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 61 ft above ground level, which was above the target. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 106 kt, indicating a potential for a long rollout.

The aircraft touched down very long, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed of 48 kt was also fast, which may have contributed to the long rollout. Despite this, the touchdown rate was smooth at -109 fpm. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 15.1 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 15 °C, a wind of 1 kt at 270°, and a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 74.8%. However, there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of threshold speed and touchdown position. The pilot's ability to maintain a smooth touchdown rate was a positive aspect of the landing. With some adjustments to the approach and touchdown technique, the pilot may be able to achieve a more optimal landing performance in the future.
