Landing on runway 25 at FMAD Ambodiatafa Airport in the Cessna C172

Landing Score 94.95 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at FMAD Ambodiatafa Airport, achieving a score of 95.0%. The final approach to runway 25 was initiated from the north east, with a heading of 233.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 576 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 58 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 251 meters was also within the expected range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 47 knots was slightly lower than the expected speed, which may have contributed to a slightly higher touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute (fpm). This rate is considered fair, but it could be improved upon.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.3 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, which is relatively mild and should not have affected the aircraft's performance.

The total landing distance of 525 meters was 58% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 11.4 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's braking or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 95.0%. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown rate and runway rollout alignment. With some adjustments to the approach and landing technique, the aircraft's performance can be further optimized.
