The flight began with the aircraft, a Sierra C24R, taxiing from its parking spot to the runway at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, taking approximately 2 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. Upon reaching the runway, the aircraft took off from runway 22L, with a takeoff distance of 487 meters, which accounted for 14% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 78 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 120 degrees.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 22L, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 11 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was also navigated, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 21 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was then executed, with the aircraft traveling a distance of 2 nautical miles at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, which was aligned at 128.1 degrees.
Upon completing the pattern, the aircraft landed on runway 27R, which had a length of 2,648 meters. The threshold height at 82 feet above ground level was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed was excessively high at 107 knots. However, the touchdown point was 382 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 63 knots was good, with a perfect touchdown rate of -38 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 3 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 120 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight took 5 minutes to complete, with the aircraft using 2 kilograms of fuel.

The aircraft, Sierra C24R, successfully landed on runway 27R at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, achieving a score of 64.2%. The landing was evaluated based on several key parameters, including threshold height, threshold speed, touchdown point, touchdown speed, and touchdown rate.
One of the notable aspects of this landing was the significant discrepancy between the actual threshold height and the target height. The threshold height at 82 ft agl was substantially above the expected value, which may have posed a challenge for the pilot. However, the pilot was able to compensate for this discrepancy and still achieve a good touchdown speed of 63 kn.
The threshold speed was another area of concern, as it was excessively high at 107 kn. This suggests that the pilot may have been experiencing some difficulty in slowing down the aircraft before touchdown. Nevertheless, the pilot was able to bring the aircraft down safely, with a touchdown point located 382 m beyond the touchdown zone.
The touchdown speed and rate were both excellent, with the aircraft touching down at 63 kn and descending at a rate of -38 fpm. This indicates that the pilot had good control over the aircraft's descent and was able to bring it down smoothly. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot had good spatial awareness and was able to align the aircraft with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 3 °C and a wind speed of 2 kn at 120 °. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kn, and the tailwind component was 2 kn. These conditions were favorable for the landing, and the pilot was able to take advantage of them to achieve a good score.
