Departing from Cibao International Airport, the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll on runway 29, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 75 kt in 941 meters, which was 36% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off into a calm local weather environment, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt from 270°. The pilot then initiated a left-hand pattern entry, navigating the aircraft through a 2-nautical-mile turn in 17 seconds.

As the aircraft continued its pattern, it encountered a crosswind of 0 kt, allowing for a smooth transition into the downwind leg. The pilot executed a 45-degree turn, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles, before proceeding to the base leg. The base leg turn, also at 45 degrees, was completed in 2 nautical miles, positioning the aircraft for a final approach to runway 29. The pilot then initiated the final turn, bringing the aircraft onto a heading of 282.0°, 1 nautical mile from the threshold and at an altitude of 722 feet above ground level.

The Cessna Skyhawk touched down on runway 29, with a touchdown distance of 163 meters and a speed of 47 kt. The touchdown rate was an excellent -64 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline, the pilot's performance was otherwise good, with a threshold speed of 57 kt and a touchdown speed that was within acceptable limits. The total flight distance was 11 nautical miles, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles in 6 minutes, and the aircraft used 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 29 at MDST Cibao International Airport from the east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 282.0° at 1 nm and 722 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 57 kt, well within the acceptable range. The aircraft touched down smoothly, with a touchdown speed of 47 kt and a touchdown distance of 163 m, both of which were within the desired parameters.

The touchdown characteristics were notable for their excellence, with a touchdown rate of -64 fpm, indicating a controlled and stable descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating by 4.9 m from the centreline. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.

The rollout phase was executed smoothly, with the aircraft maintaining control and stability as it decelerated to a stop. The overall score for the landing was 96.7%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, and the aircraft's performance was consistent with its capabilities.
