Departing from a remote island in the State of Pohnpei, Micronesia, the Grumman Goose began its journey, transitioning into level cruise en route overhead Ngatik. This phase of the flight lasted a brief 2 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The crew maintained a steady altitude, allowing the aircraft to efficiently utilize its resources for the remainder of the flight.
As the Grumman Goose approached its destination, it initiated a final approach to landing, descending from an altitude of 165 feet above ground level (agl) to a mere 1 nautical mile from the landing site. The aircraft's rate of descent was carefully managed, with a final descent from 44 feet agl to 0 feet agl in a span of 13 seconds. The crew's attention to detail was evident in their ability to execute a smooth and controlled approach.
The Grumman Goose touched down safely on the remote island, albeit with a slightly higher than desired touchdown speed of 72 knots. The aircraft's touchdown rate of -216 feet per minute was considered fair, and the crew's efforts to bring the aircraft in for a precise landing were rewarded with a touchdown point located 652 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit, presented no significant challenges to the flight. The Grumman Goose's performance was notable, having covered a total distance of 5 nautical miles in 4 minutes while consuming a mere 15 pounds of fuel.
