This flight was conducted in a Cessna 152 aircraft, taking off from the Sedona Airport in Arizona, United States. The enroute climb began 1 mile south of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 6,005 feet above sea level to 5,296 feet above sea level, a total increase of 709 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached the runway, it was heading in a northeasterly direction, at a bearing of 232.0 degrees, and was 1 nautical mile away from the runway at an altitude of 558 feet above ground level. The final approach was made to runway 21, which has a length of 1,562 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 126 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 66 knots, which was significantly faster than the target speed. The touchdown rate was fair, at -252 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 34 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 917 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the entire flight, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a total distance of 3 nautical miles.

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 232.0° at 1 nm and 558 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 81 ft agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 75 kt, which may have contributed to the issues with the landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 126 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the desired touchdown point. Furthermore, the touchdown speed of 66 kt was excessively fast, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touching down. The touchdown rate of -252 fpm was fair, but not ideal.
Despite these issues, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions were also favorable, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind of 1 kt at 34°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind.
The total landing distance of 917 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and bring it to a safe stop. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of slowing down the aircraft before touchdown and maintaining a more precise approach to the runway threshold.
