The flight began with a departure roll from runway 31R at John F Kennedy International Airport (KJFK). The aircraft, a Cessna C172, took off with a takeoff distance of 405 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 66 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,025 feet above sea level (asl) to 4,026 ft asl, an increase of 3,001 feet in just 5 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. This climb phase was initiated overhead Canarsie, New York. The aircraft then began its descent from 3,924 ft asl to 3,134 ft asl, a decrease of 791 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles, with the descent starting overhead Long Island City, New York.

The aircraft continued its flight, initiating another climb from 3,166 ft asl to 3,822 ft asl, an increase of 656 feet in 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles, with the climb starting overhead Hoboken, New Jersey. The subsequent descent from 3,808 ft asl to 1,508 ft asl, a decrease of 2,300 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles, began overhead Jersey City, New Jersey.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, lasting 13 minutes, covering 8 nautical miles, and initiated 2 miles northwest of Sunset Park, New York. The final approach to runway 04L at Newark Liberty International Airport (KEWR) was made from the southwest, with a heading of 33.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 1,115 feet above ground level (agl).

The landing on runway 04L was characterized by a touchdown point 132 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 66 knots, which was too fast. The touchdown rate was very hard at -570 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as at the departure, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees.

The total landing distance was 888 meters, accounting for 41% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 11 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 30 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 36 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 16 kilograms.

Landing on runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport in the Cessna C172
Landing Score 76.01 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed on runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 33.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,115 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down 132 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target.

The touchdown speed of 66 knots was too fast, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown. This is further compounded by the very hard touchdown rate of -570 feet per minute (fpm), which suggests that the aircraft may have been subjected to a significant amount of stress during the landing. On the other hand, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a stable approach and align the aircraft with the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and no headwind, making the landing conditions relatively straightforward. However, the threshold height at 98 feet agl was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was well above the target at 81 knots. These factors may have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing.

The total landing distance of 888 meters was 41% of the runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown, resulting in a longer than necessary landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, while the Cessna C172 aircraft was able to land safely on runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport, the landing was not without its issues. The pilot may have benefited from additional training or practice to improve their ability to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown and to maintain a more stable approach.
