This flight was conducted in a PA28 Warrior II aircraft, departing from Cheboygan County Airport (KSLH) in Michigan, United States. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took approximately 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 35, with a takeoff distance of 379 feet, which is 20% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 56 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 339°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb after departing the airport, reaching an altitude of 1,778 feet above sea level (asl) from an initial altitude of 735 feet asl. This climb, which lasted for 2 minutes, covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase began 3 miles north of the Cheboygan County Airport. The final approach to runway 28 at Bois Blanc Airport (6Y1) was conducted from the east, with the aircraft heading 278.0° at an altitude of 542 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold.
The landing on runway 28 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 49 knots and a distance of 457 feet. The touchdown rate was excellent at -91 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at the time of departure, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 339°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 7 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5 pounds of fuel during the flight.

The PA28 Warrior II aircraft successfully landed at 6Y1 Bois Blanc, achieving a score of 93.1%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 278.0° at 1 nautical mile and 542 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 28, which has a length of 3,379 feet.
The pilot demonstrated good control during the approach, with a threshold height that was satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 57 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 457 feet, and the touchdown speed of 49 knots was also within acceptable limits.
One notable aspect of the landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -91 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and with minimal impact, which is a key factor in ensuring a safe and comfortable landing for passengers.
However, there was a slight deviation from the ideal landing procedure, as the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centreline. This may be due to a slight miscalculation of the approach path or a minor deviation in the pilot's control inputs.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 7 knots at 339°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were likely taken into account by the pilot during the approach and landing phases. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills.
