The flight began with the aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Airbus A320 then departed from runway 32 at KDOV Dover Air Force Base, with a takeoff distance of 1,354 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 152 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -4°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots blowing from 279°. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a headwind of 17 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead KDOV Dover Air Force Base, and climbed from an altitude of 992 feet above sea level to 33,585 feet, an increase of 32,593 feet, in 15 minutes and covering a distance of 24 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead MD91 Saxon Farms Airport, and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 160 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 9 miles northwest of Franklin, and descended from an altitude of 34,003 feet to 2,996 feet, a decrease of 31,008 feet, in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 93 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, starting 5 miles east of Pinch, and climbed from an altitude of 2,994 feet to 4,870 feet, an increase of 1,875 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 5 miles north of Cedar Grove, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, starting 3 miles southeast of Pinch, and descended from an altitude of 4,498 feet to 1,801 feet, a decrease of 2,697 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at KCRW Yeager Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 209.0°, at an altitude of 801 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing was made on runway 23, which had a length of 1,742 meters. The threshold height was above the target, and the threshold speed was too high at 154 knots.
The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway, and the touchdown speed was fast at 140 knots. The touchdown rate was very heavy at -710 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -5°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots blowing from 29°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,455 meters, which accounted for 84% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.4 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took less than 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 299 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 72 minutes. The aircraft used 2,418 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Airbus A320 aircraft has successfully landed at KCRW Yeager Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, heading 209.0° at 1 nm and 801 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the landing was characterized by several deviations from the ideal.
One of the primary concerns was the threshold height, which was above the target height at 62 ft agl. This indicates that the aircraft was higher than desired when it reached the runway threshold, which could have affected the pilot's ability to control the aircraft during the landing. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 154 kt, which is faster than the recommended speed for landing.
The touchdown point was also a concern, as it was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. This suggests that the aircraft was not properly aligned with the runway centerline, which could have been due to a variety of factors, including wind or pilot error. The touchdown speed of 140 kt was also faster than recommended, which could have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -710 fpm. A heavy touchdown rate can put excessive stress on the aircraft's landing gear and can also affect the safety of the passengers.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were also a factor. The temperature was -5 °C, and the wind was blowing at 6 kt from 29°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 kt and a tailwind of 6 kt, which could have affected the aircraft's stability and control during the landing. Despite these challenges, the aircraft was able to land safely, but the landing distance was 1,455 m, which is 84% of the available runway.
The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.4 m from the centerline, which suggests that the aircraft was not properly aligned with the runway after touchdown. This could have been due to a variety of factors, including pilot error or the effects of the wind. Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the aircraft was able to land safely, but there are several areas for improvement to ensure a smoother and more controlled landing in the future.
