The flight began with a departure roll from runway 36L at YLIL Lilydale Airport. The aircraft, a Cessna 152, required a takeoff distance of 185 meters, which accounted for 14% of the runway. The liftoff speed was achieved at 51 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

After takeoff, the pilot entered a left-hand pattern from runway 36L, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in 28 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind was also executed in less than 1 nautical mile in 41 seconds. The pilot then proceeded to the downwind turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 64.4 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nautical miles in 85 seconds.

The base leg turn was completed in 2 nautical miles, with the aircraft positioned at an angle of 45.5 degrees to the runway. The base leg itself was covered in less than 1 nautical mile in 43 seconds. The final turn was executed in less than 1 nautical mile in 25 seconds, setting the aircraft up for a final approach to runway 36L from the south at a heading of 8.0 degrees and an altitude of 517 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target at 49 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 198 meters, and the touchdown speed was also satisfactory at 38 knots. The touchdown rate was excellent at -60 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.3 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 186 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a tailwind of 8 knots. The total landing distance was 315 meters, accounting for 24% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes. The aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly and efficiently, with the pilot demonstrating good control and navigation skills throughout the flight.

Landing on runway 36L at YLIL Lilydale Airport in the Cessna 152

Landing Score 93.78 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 152 aircraft successfully landed at YLIL Lilydale Airport, achieving a score of 93.8%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 8.0° at 1 nautical mile and 517 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 36L, which has a length of 1,324 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 49 knots. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 198 meters, and the touchdown speed of 38 knots was also within acceptable limits.

One of the notable aspects of this landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -60 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 controlled landing.

However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 4.3 meters off-centerline. This may be due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's alignment during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 186°. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots and a tailwind of 8 knots, which may have contributed to the slight misalignment.

The total landing distance was 315 meters, which is 24% of the runway length. This is a relatively short distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was also reported as very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its alignment and direction during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, this landing was a success, with the aircraft achieving a good score and demonstrating a high level of control and precision during the approach and landing phases.
