Cibao International Airport in Santiago, Dominican Republic, served as the departure point for this Cessna 152 flight. As the aircraft lifted off, it began its enroute climb, rapidly ascending from an initial altitude of 569 feet above sea level to 1,480 feet, a gain of 911 feet in just one minute. This initial climb phase covered a distance of approximately 2 nautical miles, setting the stage for a smooth transition into the cruise phase.
As the aircraft leveled off, it entered a 2-minute enroute cruise phase, maintaining a steady altitude of 1,480 feet. This phase saw the aircraft cover a distance of 3 nautical miles, allowing the crew to assess the flight's overall performance. Following the cruise phase, the aircraft began its enroute descent, gradually losing altitude from 1,690 feet to 909 feet in a 2-minute period, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This descent phase was a critical component of the flight, requiring precise control to ensure a safe and efficient approach to the destination airport.
The final approach to runway 11 at Cibao International Airport was initiated from a heading of 104.0 degrees, approximately 1 nautical mile from the runway threshold. The aircraft touched down on the runway, which measured 2,606 meters in length, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was found to be excessively high at 82 knots. The touchdown point was 698 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 35 knots and an excellent touchdown rate of -60 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.5 meters. Local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees.

The aircraft touched down on runway 11 at MDST Cibao International Airport, a 2,606-meter long runway, after a final approach from the west. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 82 kt, indicating a potential for a longer landing roll. The touchdown point was 698 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which may have been influenced by the high threshold speed.
The touchdown characteristics were generally good, with a touchdown speed of 35 kt and an excellent touchdown rate of -60 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions were calm, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from 270 °, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind of 1 kt.
The overall performance of the aircraft during the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 77.1%. While there were some areas for improvement, such as the high threshold speed and slight misalignment of the touchdown position, the touchdown characteristics were generally good. The aircraft's ability to maintain a stable approach and touchdown at a speed of 35 kt and a rate of -60 fpm was a positive aspect of the landing.
