Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EGCB City Airport Manchester took less than a minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 26R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 50 knots. The takeoff distance of 367 meters accounted for 57% of the available runway length. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 20°C, with a wind of 10 knots at 298°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.

As the aircraft climbed away from EGCB City Airport Manchester, it transitioned into an enroute climb phase, reaching an altitude of 1,264 feet above sea level. This increase of 190 feet over a distance of 2 nautical miles was achieved in just 1 minute. The enroute level cruise phase commenced overhead Irlam, lasting 10 minutes and covering a distance of 21 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23L at EGCC Manchester Airport, descending from an altitude of 238 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 23L was notable for its touchdown distance of 226 meters, which was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 121 knots was excessively high, and the touchdown rate of -2,487 feet per minute was very heavy. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 146.5 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance of 519 meters accounted for 18% of the available runway length, and the runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 153.2 meters from the centreline. The total flight distance of 23 nautical miles was achieved in 12 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 8 kilograms.

Landing on runway 23L at EGCC Manchester Airport in the Cessna C172
Landing Score 47.7 %
Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23L at EGCC Manchester Airport from the north east was initiated at 0 nm and 238 ft above ground level, heading 249.0°. The approach quality was compromised by an excessively high threshold height of 174 ft agl, exceeding the target by a significant margin. This deviation from standard operating procedures likely contributed to the subsequent issues encountered during the landing phase.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited a number of concerning characteristics. The touchdown speed of 121 kt was excessively fast, and the touchdown rate of -2,487 fpm was classified as very heavy. The touchdown distance of 226 m was satisfactory, but the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 146.5 m from the centreline. This misalignment was further exacerbated during the rollout phase, where the aircraft remained 153.2 m off-centreline. The threshold speed of 117 kt was also excessively high, indicating a potential loss of control during the approach.

The overall performance of the landing was disappointing, with a score of 47.7%. The excessive threshold height, high threshold speed, and heavy touchdown rate all contributed to a suboptimal landing. The touchdown speed and distance were the only aspects of the landing that met acceptable standards. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 22 °C and wind speeds of 12 kt at 280°, did not appear to significantly impact the landing.
