Straight touchdown — 0.2 ft off the centreline, no bounce
Rollout controlled — 6 % of the runway used

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Threshold speed at 39 kt was well below target, take care not to stall at 26 %, Flare profile at 57 %, −3.29 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -358 fpm at 34 %, bank angle up to 3.4 ° at 82 %, −1.61 points
Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Rotation speed was 42 kt at 62 %, −1.24 points

Next time

Departure

Hold the nose down until the speed reaches 58 kt, then rotate.

What happened: You started the rotation at 42 kt, 16 kt before the 58 kt rotation speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 58 kt at rotation

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Add power on final to hold 64 kt across the threshold.

What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 39 kt, 25 kt below VREF, and low energy like this usually carries through to a firm touchdown at 358 fpm.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 64 kt at the threshold

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Flight narrative

Departing Renton Municipal Airport (KRNT), the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll on runway 16, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 55 kt in 1,202 ft, which represented 25% of the available runway length. The aircraft then transitioned into a steady climb, leaving the airport behind as it ascended from 474 ft above sea level to 162 ft asl in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm. This initial climb phase showcased the aircraft's ability to efficiently gain altitude in a short period.

As the aircraft continued its enroute climb, it eventually began its descent for the final approach to runway 34 at KRNT. From a height of 0 nm and 133 ft above ground level, the pilot guided the aircraft towards the runway, aligning with a heading of 338.0°. The threshold speed of 39 kt was well below the target, necessitating caution to avoid stalling. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 36 kt, with a touchdown distance of 170 ft and a firm touchdown rate of -343 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the subsequent rollout was also well-aligned.

The total landing distance of 376 ft represented only 8% of the available runway length, demonstrating the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent and touchdown. The total flight distance of 2 nm was completed in 2 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 134 lbs of fuel. The local weather conditions, with temperatures ranging from 60 °F to 59 °F, did not appear to have any significant impact on the flight. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and efficient operations, with the pilot successfully navigating the aircraft through various phases of flight.
