Next time

Departure

Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.

What happened: The aircraft tracked 7.6 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 17°, into the first climb.

Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1

Arrival

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to track the centreline.

What happened: The aircraft drifted off the centreline during the landing roll.

Watch for: Heading indicator: wings aligned with the runway centreline

Flight narrative

The Cessna 172 taxied from the parking area to runway 04R at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport in less than 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 04R, the aircraft accelerated through a takeoff distance of 502 m, representing 18 % of the available runway, and lifted off at 69 kt. Local weather conditions were a temperature of 28 °C, wind from 059° at 13 kt with a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 13 kt head-wind.

A go-around was initiated on runway 08L at PHNL when the aircraft reached 1,166 ft agl, aborting the initial landing attempt.

The final approach to runway 08L was conducted from the west, with the aircraft on a heading of 96.0° at 1 nm and 827 ft agl. Earlier in the pattern, a left-hand entry and a left-hand cross-wind leg were flown, each covering less than 1 nm in 3 seconds and 2 seconds respectively, before the go-around.

Landing was completed on runway 08L, whose length is 3,741 m. The threshold height was recorded at 124 ft agl, noted as excessively over target, and the threshold speed was observed to be high at 74 kt.

In total, the flight covered 19 nm, taking 11, and consumed 6 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 08L at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport was conducted from the west on a heading of 96.0 ° at a distance of 1 nm and an altitude of 827 ft agl.

During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft crossed the threshold at a height of 124 ft agl, which was excessively over target, and the speed at that point was 74 kt, noted as too high.

The overall landing received a score of 59.5 %. Reducing the approach speed to meet the target value will help bring the threshold speed within limits, and adjusting the descent profile to achieve the correct threshold height will correct the excessive altitude at crossing.
