Landing on runway 01 at BITN Þórshöfn Airport in the Cessna Skyhawk

Landing Score 98.46 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at BITN Þórshöfn Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 358.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 457 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a steady course, ensuring a smooth final approach to runway 01.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 55 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the landing, as the touchdown distance of 139 meters was considered good. The touchdown speed of 50 knots was also within acceptable limits, indicating a well-controlled descent.

One of the standout aspects of this landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and controlled approach, resulting in a smooth touchdown. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to accurately align the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of -0°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 178°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 2 knots. The pilot effectively managed these conditions, ensuring a safe and controlled landing.

The total landing distance of 711 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance. The Cessna Skyhawk handled the challenging weather conditions and runway environment with ease, resulting in a safe and successful landing.
