This flight was conducted in a Cessna 152 aircraft, taking off from the Sedona Airport in Arizona, United States. The enroute climb began approximately 2 miles southwest of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 5,400 feet above sea level to 5,395 feet, a mere 5-foot increase, within less than a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached the runway, it was heading southwest at a bearing of 46.0 degrees, approximately 2 nautical miles from the runway, and at an altitude of 661 feet above ground level. The final approach to runway 03 at KSEZ Sedona Airport was executed smoothly, with the aircraft landing safely on the 1,562-meter-long runway.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, with the threshold speed being slightly below the target speed of 54 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 175 meters, although the touchdown speed of 44 knots was a bit faster than ideal. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at 2 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot at 34 degrees. There was no crosswind, and a slight headwind of 1 knot was present. The total landing distance was 428 meters, which accounted for only 27% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
In terms of fuel consumption, the flight used a negligible amount of fuel, with a total flight distance of 1 nautical mile and a flight time of 2 minutes. Overall, the flight was executed safely and efficiently, with the aircraft performing well under the given conditions.

The Cessna 152 aircraft successfully landed at KSEZ Sedona Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its final approach and landing. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southwest, heading 46.0° at 2 nautical miles and 661 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the pilot to make a precise approach to runway 03, which is 1,562 meters in length.
The landing was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 54 knots, which may have been due to the pilot's cautious approach. Despite this, the touchdown distance was good at 175 meters, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was a little fast at 44 knots, which may have been due to the pilot's difficulty in slowing down the aircraft quickly enough. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at 2 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft was touching down smoothly and without any sudden deceleration. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach to the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 34°. This minimal wind made it easier for the pilot to control the aircraft's approach and landing. The crosswind was negligible at 0 knots, and the headwind was a gentle 1 knot, which helped to slow down the aircraft's approach speed.
The total landing distance was 428 meters, which is only 27% of the runway length. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, without overrunning the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop.
Overall, the Cessna 152's landing at KSEZ Sedona Airport was a successful and well-executed maneuver, demonstrating the pilot's skill and proficiency in handling the aircraft.
