Next time

Departure

Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold 2.3° of bank out of the climb.

What happened: The pilot held 2.3° of bank during the climb out, and excess bank like this usually carries a heading drift into the next climb segment.

Watch for: Attitude indicator and heading bug, keeping bank near wings level so heading holds steady.

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 from Cibao International Airport, the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll on runway 11, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 92 kt in 1,070 meters, which represented 41% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off into a calm local weather environment, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle tailwind of 1 kt from 270°.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it maintained a steady pace, completing the downwind turn in 1 nm and the downwind leg in 3 nm over a period of 120 seconds. The base leg turn and base leg itself were executed smoothly, with the aircraft aligning itself for the final approach. The pilot then initiated the final turn, guiding the aircraft towards a precise touchdown on runway 11. The approach was characterized by a heading of 97.0° and an altitude of 681 ft above ground level (agl) at 1 nm from the threshold.

The Cessna Skyhawk touched down on the runway with a distance of 122 m, slightly below the target threshold speed of 54 kt, but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 47 kt was good, and the rate of descent was smooth at -116 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase. The total flight distance was 9 nm, covering a distance of 5 nm in a relatively short period of time, and the aircraft consumed 2 kg of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 11 at MDST Cibao International Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 97.0° at 1 nm and 681 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 54 kt, indicating a slight delay in the touchdown process.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 122 m, and the touchdown speed of 47 kt was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was smooth at -116 fpm, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.

The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment. The overall score for the landing was 96.5%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The slight deviation in threshold speed was the only notable deviation from the ideal performance, but it did not significantly impact the overall outcome of the landing.
