Cibao International Airport in Santiago, Dominican Republic, served as the departure point for this Cessna Skyhawk flight. As the aircraft lifted off, it began its enroute climb, rapidly ascending from an initial altitude of 559 feet above sea level to 1,316 feet, a gain of 757 feet in just one minute. This initial climb phase covered a distance of 2 nautical miles, setting the stage for the aircraft's subsequent cruise.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining a steady altitude as it flew 1 mile west of the airport. This cruise phase lasted for 3 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The flight then entered its final approach phase, descending from an altitude of 551 feet above ground level as it aligned with runway 29. The aircraft's heading was 280.0 degrees, and it was 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold.
The Cessna Skyhawk touched down on runway 29, which measures 2,606 meters in length. Although the threshold speed was slightly higher than optimal at 72 knots, the touchdown speed of 45 knots was satisfactory. The aircraft's touchdown rate was impressive, with a descent rate of -74 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5 meters. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a light wind of 1 knot from 270 degrees. The aircraft's performance was notable, covering a total distance of 8 nautical miles in 5 minutes while consuming 2 kilograms of fuel.

The aircraft touched down on runway 29 at MDST Cibao International Airport, a 2,606-meter-long runway, after a final approach from the east at a heading of 280.0°. The approach quality was good, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than desired at 72 knots, indicating a need for adjustment in the approach configuration.
The touchdown characteristics were generally good, with a touchdown speed of 45 knots that was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute was excellent, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision during the landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.0 meters, indicating a slight deviation from the desired path. The touchdown point was 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which was not ideal but did not pose a significant safety risk.
The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft coming to a stop without incident. The local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind component was minimal at 1 knot. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 95.6% reflecting the good approach quality, acceptable touchdown characteristics, and minor deviations from the desired path.
