Landing on runway XX at 19 miles east of OEPF Pump Station 6 Airport Pump Station 6 (Riyadh Region, Saudi Arabia) in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 75.11 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk conducted its final approach to the landing ground 19 miles east of OEPF Pump Station 6 Airport Pump Station 6 in the Riyadh Region, Saudi Arabia, flying from 1 nm to 1 nm at 102 ft agl. Local weather was 15 °C with wind 2 kt from 270°, cross-wind 0 kt and tail-wind 2 kt.

During the threshold and flare the aircraft descended from 45 ft agl to 0 ft agl, a decrease of 45 ft achieved in 17 seconds.

Touchdown occurred with a speed of 52 kt, a smooth vertical rate of minus 135 fpm, and the touchdown point was 224 m beyond the touchdown zone.

The rollout was recorded at an altitude of 2,513 ft asl and covered a distance of 203 m.

With a final score of 75.1 % the primary area for refinement is the touchdown point, which was significantly beyond the intended zone; adjusting flare timing to achieve the aim point approximately 300 m (1,000 ft) in will bring the touchdown location within limits. Maintaining the current approach speed and vertical profile will support a more accurate touchdown while preserving the overall good performance.
