The flight began with a departure roll from runway 27 at Whakatane Airport (NZWK). The Cessna Longitude took off with a takeoff distance of 683 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 136 knots, and the aircraft was able to lift off the ground quickly.
As the aircraft entered the traffic pattern, it followed a left-hand pattern entry from runway 27. The distance covered during this phase was less than 1 nautical mile in 33 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also flown, with a distance of 1 nautical mile covered in 26 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind turn, which had a distance of 3 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 70.3 degrees.
The downwind leg itself had a distance of 3 nautical miles and took 71 seconds to complete. The base leg turn had a distance of 4 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 41.9 degrees. The base leg had a distance of 1 nautical mile and took 34 seconds to complete. The final turn had a distance of 1 nautical mile and took 33 seconds to complete.
The final approach to runway 27 was made from the south-east, with a heading of 292.0 degrees at 2 nautical miles and 833 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 357 meters, which was 58% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 114 knots, but the touchdown rate was good at -183 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions during the landing were a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from 291 degrees. The crosswind was 0 knots, and the headwind was 7 knots. The total landing distance was 737 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.1 meters from the centreline.
The total flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the flight took 8 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of -300 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna Longitude successfully landed at Whakatane Airport (NZWK) on runway 27, achieving a score of 95.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 292.0° at 2 nautical miles and 833 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was above the target speed, reaching 120 knots. This indicates that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 357 meters was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's energy and land smoothly.
However, the touchdown speed of 114 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate. Nevertheless, the actual touchdown rate of -183 feet per minute (fpm) was still within acceptable limits, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, which is essential for a safe landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a gentle headwind of 7 knots from 291°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots.
The total landing distance of 737 meters was 58% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.1 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control inputs or a minor issue with the aircraft's directional control.
Overall, the Cessna Longitude's landing at Whakatane Airport was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft's descent and speed. While there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway rollout alignment, the overall performance was satisfactory, earning a score of 95.0%.
