Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 5.7 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Make small rudder corrections to track the centreline, aiming at a point on the far end of the runway.

What happened: Heading drifted off the extended centreline during the final approach segment.

Watch for: Heading indicator against the runway centreline track.

See Arrival Final 1

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight in question was a Cessna Skyhawk aircraft making a departure roll from runway 33 at the Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport, located in ZGSZ. The takeoff distance was 359 meters, which accounted for 11% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 63 knots, a relatively smooth takeoff. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 kilometer per hour (kt) blowing at 270 degrees.

After taking off, the aircraft began to cruise at a level altitude. This enroute level cruise started approximately 1 mile north-west of the airport and lasted for 6 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The aircraft then proceeded to the final approach to landing, which involved a gradual descent from 1 nautical mile altitude towards the ground.

The final approach to landing was initiated 11 miles north of the airport, and the aircraft descended from 333 feet above ground level (agl) to 1 nautical mile agl. The descent was followed by the approach phase, during which the aircraft continued its descent and prepared for touchdown. The aircraft landed with a touchdown speed of 61 kt, which was slightly faster than required. The touchdown rate was fair, with a rate of -201 feet per minute (fpm).

The touchdown distance was good, measuring 389 meters. Following a smooth touchdown, the aircraft then came to a stop, with the aircraft consuming no fuel during the entire flight. The total flight distance was 13 nautical miles, taking approximately 8 minutes to complete. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at the time of departure, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind of 1 kt blowing at 271 degrees.

Landing report
Landing on runway XX at 11 miles north of ZGSZ Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport Shenzhen (Bao'an) (Guangdong Sheng, China) in the Cessna Skyhawk
Landing Score 90.27 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully completed a landing at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport, achieving a score of 90.3%. The aircraft began its final approach from 1 nautical mile away, descending from an altitude of 333 feet above ground level (agl) to 1 nautical mile away from the airport. The pilot maintained a steady descent, eventually touching down 11 miles north of the airport.

The aircraft's descent from 41 feet agl to 0 feet agl was particularly notable, with a decrease of 41 feet in just 10 seconds. This indicates a smooth and controlled descent, which is essential for a safe landing. The touchdown speed of 61 knots was slightly higher than ideal, but the pilot managed to bring the aircraft down safely.

The touchdown rate of -201 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating that the aircraft was not excessively hard on the landing. The touchdown distance of 389 meters was also satisfactory, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed and descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot at 271 degrees. There was no crosswind, and the aircraft was aided by a 1-knot headwind, which helped to reduce the landing speed. Overall, the Cessna Skyhawk's landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and a smooth descent.
