A Cessna C172 took off from runway 29 at Haydock Park Airstrip, EGGL. The aircraft managed a departure roll distance of 258 meters, which accounts for 39% of the runway. The liftoff speed, achieved at 57 knots, was a smooth start to the flight.

Initially, the aircraft was at an altitude of 510 feet above sea level. As the aircraft began its enroute climb near Ashton in Makerfield, it efficiently rose to 742 feet, an increase of 232 feet, within a minute while covering less than a nautical mile. This rapid ascent indicates excellent climbing skills from the pilot.

The aircraft then transitioned to a level cruise, lasting 12 minutes, and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles at the same altitude. This steady flight showcased the aircraft's ability to maintain a consistent speed. The enroute descent started near Ince-in-Makerfield, where the aircraft descended 474 feet from an altitude of 952 feet to 477 feet within 2 minutes and covered 2 nautical miles.

A brief, 2-minute level cruise started near Abram, during which the aircraft covered 2 nautical miles. This was followed by a final approach to runway 29 from the east. The landing was executed with a good threshold height and a slightly above-target speed of 64 knots. The touchdown distance was remarkably short at 193 meters.

However, the aircraft touched down at 47 knots, which might have resulted from a slightly faster approach speed. The touchdown rate of -216 feet per minute was fair but could be bettered with more precise flying techniques. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating 3.5 meters from the centerline. The aircraft's rollout alignment, however, was flawless.

Throughout the flight, the aircraft maintained a distance of 8 nautical miles and consumed 6 kilograms of fuel over a 20-minute period.

Landing Summary

The recent landing of aircraft Cessna C172 at EGGL Haydock Park Airstrip was observed to be nearly flawless, scoring an impressive 98.1% in the assessment. The aircraft was navigating the runway 29 using the eastern approach, tracking accurately at a heading of 289.0°. Upon reaching the runway at zero distance and 85 feet above ground level, the pilot executed a successful landing with impressive precision and control.

One notable aspect of this landing was the pilot's adherence to the target threshold height. Although the threshold speed came in slightly above the intended mark at 64 knots, this deviation was relatively minor and did not seem to have any significant impact on the overall quality of the landing.

In reviewing the data, the pilot demonstrated a good understanding of the appropriate touchdown distance for the aircraft, landing safely at a distance of 193 meters. Similarly, the touchdown speed of 47 knots was well within the desired range. However, some improvement was noted in the touchdown rate, which was deemed fair at -216 feet per minute.

Additionally, the weather conditions for the landing were relatively favorable, with a moderate temperature of 15°C and minimal wind of 5 knots. The presence of a gentle 3-knot headwind and a minor 4-knot crosswind further reduced the impact of wind-related factors. Overall, these conditions appear to have contributed to the success of the landing.

The landing roll phase was marked by perfect alignment with the runway centerline, with no deviations noted during the rollout alignment. This demonstrates a high degree of control and skill on the part of the pilot, further contributing to the overall success of the landing. In total, the aircraft covered a distance of 503 meters, which was found to be 76% of the runway length, leaving ample room for deceleration and roll-out.
