The flight began with a departure roll from runway 01 at Oita Airport, RJFO, where the aircraft, a Beechcraft Duke, took off with a takeoff distance of 237 meters, which accounted for 8% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 85 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 01, with the distance covered being less than 1 nautical mile in 126 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 64 seconds, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The pattern downwind turn involved a distance of 3 nautical miles, with an angle to the runway of 41.0 degrees. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 4 nautical miles in 120 seconds.

The pattern base leg turn was completed in 1 nautical mile, with an angle to the runway of 63.0 degrees. The base leg itself was covered in less than 1 nautical mile in 25 seconds. The final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 01 from the southeast, heading 322.0 degrees at an altitude of 434 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 01 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 308 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed was 76 knots, also considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -222 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.6 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 588 meters, accounting for 20% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.3 meters from the centreline.

The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, which was completed in 10 minutes, and the aircraft used 27 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 69.82 %

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft Duke aircraft successfully landed at RJFO Oita Airport, with a score of 69.8%. The final approach to runway 01 was initiated from the south east, heading 322.0° at 0 nm and 434 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 2,997 meters.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 83 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 308 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 76 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating a moderate rate of descent.

Despite the good performance in terms of touchdown speed and distance, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.6 meters from the centerline. This suggests that the pilot may have deviated slightly from the intended approach path. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were mild, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°.

The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind. The total landing distance of 588 meters was 20% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the pilot's difficulty in maintaining a straight course during the landing roll.

Overall, while the Beechcraft Duke aircraft demonstrated some good performance characteristics during the landing, there were also some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a straight course during the approach and landing roll.
