A Cessna Skyhawk aircraft took off from Langeoog Airport in Lower Saxony, Germany, and began its enroute climb. The aircraft started climbing from a height of 17 feet above sea level (asl) and reached a height of 839 feet asl in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to quickly gain altitude and establish a steady cruise altitude.

After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This brief cruise phase was followed by an enroute descent, during which the aircraft descended from 891 feet asl to 209 feet asl in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time lasting for 2 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached the runway, it began its final approach to runway 05 at EDWL Langeoog Airport. The aircraft was heading 56.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 403 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed with a threshold speed that was well above the target speed of 69 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly fast touchdown speed of 60 knots.

The touchdown distance was good, measuring 195 meters, and the touchdown rate was firm at -343 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 6.1 meters. The total landing distance was 489 meters, which accounted for 82% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.7 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 1 knot. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 10 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Takeoff on runway at in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing on runway 05 at EDWL Langeoog Airport in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 85.02 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at EDWL Langeoog Airport, achieving an overall score of 85.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 56.0° at 1 nautical mile and 403 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, setting up for a landing on runway 05, which has a length of 597 meters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was above the target speed of 69 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown distance of 195 meters was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent.

However, the touchdown speed of 60 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate of -343 feet per minute (fpm). This could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and may have affected the overall ride quality for the passengers.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°, did not pose any significant challenges for the landing.

The total landing distance of 489 meters was 82% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 7.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's continued deviation from the centerline after touchdown.

Overall, the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the landing, but there were some minor deviations from ideal performance. With some refinement in the final approach and touchdown techniques, the pilot can achieve an even smoother and more precise landing.
