The flight began with a departure roll on runway 11 at Cibao International Airport. The Pilatus PC-6 aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 219 meters, which accounted for 8% of the total runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 63 knots, marking the start of the takeoff phase.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 15°C temperature and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the northwest. The enroute climb began approximately 1 mile east of the airport, where the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,612 feet above sea level to 1,975 feet, a gain of 363 feet in just 1 minute. This climb phase covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 1 mile southeast of Licey al Medio. The descent from 1,954 feet to 651 feet, a decrease of 1,303 feet in 2 minutes, covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. This phase of the flight was characterized by a smooth and controlled descent.
As the aircraft approached the final approach phase, it was heading west towards runway 11 at Cibao International Airport. The aircraft was at an altitude of 93 feet above ground level and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The final approach was made from the west, aligning with the runway centerline.
The landing phase was executed successfully, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 44 knots. The touchdown distance was 194 meters, which was within the acceptable limits. However, the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned from the centerline by 26.2 meters. The local weather conditions during the landing phase were similar to those encountered during takeoff, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the northwest.
The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 4 minutes. The aircraft consumed 15 kilograms of fuel during the entire flight. Overall, the flight was executed smoothly, with the aircraft performing well within the expected parameters.

The Pilatus PC-6 aircraft successfully landed at MDST Cibao International Airport, achieving a score of 94.4%. The final approach to runway 11 was initiated from the west, with a heading of 95.0° at an altitude of 93 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated good control, with a threshold speed of 58 knots and a touchdown distance of 194 meters. The touchdown speed of 44 knots was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate of -259 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly higher-than-desired rate of descent during the landing.
One notable issue with the landing was the significant misalignment of the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft touching down 26.2 meters off-centerline. This may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error, and could potentially pose a risk to the aircraft's stability and control during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 1 knot, which may have contributed to the aircraft's touchdown position being off-centerline.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a more precise touchdown position and achieving a more desirable touchdown rate.
