The flight began with a departure roll from runway 29 at Cibao International Airport. The Pilatus PC-6 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 94 meters, which accounted for only 4% of the runway's total length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 60 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.
As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern, it did so from runway 29, with the entry distance being less than 1 nautical mile in just 5 seconds. The right-hand pattern crosswind was also navigated with ease, with the aircraft covering the distance in less than 1 nautical mile in 3 seconds. The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, which took approximately 1 nautical mile to complete, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees at 166.0 degrees.
The downwind leg of the pattern was short-lived, lasting less than 1 nautical mile in 2 seconds. The pilot then executed a base leg turn, which covered a distance of 1 nautical mile and had an angle to the runway of 45 degrees at 166.4 degrees. The base leg itself was also brief, lasting less than 1 nautical mile in 2 seconds.
The final approach to runway 11 was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading 275.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 393 feet above ground level. However, the pilot decided to execute a go-around at 347 feet above ground level, likely due to concerns about the approach.
The landing was eventually made on runway 11, which had a length of 2,606 meters. The threshold height at 219 feet above ground level was excessively over target, and the threshold speed was also excessively high at 100 knots. The touchdown point was 743 meters beyond the touchdown zone, but the touchdown speed of 40 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -189 feet per minute was also satisfactory. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions during the flight were characterized by a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius. The total flight distance was 1 nautical mile, and the flight took approximately 2 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of 8 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Pilatus PC-6 aircraft has successfully landed at MDST Cibao International Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 11 from the east, heading 275.0°, was initiated at 1 nautical mile and 393 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was marked by a number of deviations from the ideal landing parameters.
One of the primary concerns was the excessive height of the threshold at 219 feet agl, which was significantly above the target height. This suggests that the aircraft may have been too high on approach, potentially leading to a longer than necessary landing roll. Additionally, the threshold speed of 100 knots was excessively high, indicating that the aircraft may have been descending too slowly on approach.
Despite these issues, the touchdown speed of 40 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -189 feet per minute (fpm) was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown point was 743 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly long on landing. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.0 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the long landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 24°C. Overall, while the landing was successful, there are several areas for improvement that the pilot and aircraft can focus on to achieve a more precise and efficient landing.
