The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21 at KSEZ Sedona Airport, a small airport located in Sedona, Arizona, United States. The Cessna 152 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 451 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 61 knots, marking the beginning of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions consisting of a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot blowing from a direction of 34 degrees. The crosswind component was negligible, while the tailwind component was a mere 1 knot. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile southwest of the airport, where the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 5,116 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 5,654 feet, a gain of 538 feet in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. This phase was initiated 2 miles southwest of the airport. The descent phase began 1 mile south of the airport, where the aircraft descended from an altitude of 6,040 feet above sea level to 5,209 feet, a decrease of 831 feet in 2 minutes. This descent phase covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached the airport, it began its final approach to runway 21, which was located to the north-east. The aircraft was flying at a heading of 228.0 degrees and was 1 nautical mile from the runway at an altitude of 466 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 21, which had a length of 1,562 meters. The threshold height was well above the target, while the threshold speed was too high at 73 knots.
The touchdown point was located 235 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was excessively fast at 60 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -340 feet per minute. Despite the high touchdown speed, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot blowing from a direction of 34 degrees.
The total landing distance was 970 meters, which accounted for 62% of the runway's total length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 8 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 2 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna 152 aircraft successfully landed at KSEZ Sedona Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 228.0° at 1 nm and 466 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 21, which has a length of 1,562 meters.
However, the landing was not perfectly executed. The threshold height at 78 ft agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than desired when approaching the runway. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 73 kt, which could have contributed to the issues with the landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 235 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the ideal landing spot. The touchdown speed of 60 kt was also excessively fast, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touching down. The touchdown rate of -340 fpm was firm, suggesting that the aircraft was touching down with a significant amount of force.
Despite these issues, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway when it touched down. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 1 kt at 34°. There was no crosswind, but there was a tailwind of 1 kt, which could have contributed to the issues with the landing.
The total landing distance was 970 meters, which is 62% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, indicating that the aircraft took some time to come to a stop after touching down. However, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the aircraft was aligned with the runway as it came to a stop.
Overall, while the landing was not perfectly executed, the aircraft was able to come to a stop safely and without incident. However, the pilot may need to work on improving their landing technique to achieve a more ideal touchdown spot and speed.
