This flight was conducted in a Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from a height of 26 feet above sea level (asl) to 1,404 ft asl. The climb was rapid, increasing the aircraft's altitude by 1,378 ft in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles (nm). This climb phase was initiated overhead Wittmundhafen Air Base Wittmund in Lower Saxony, Germany.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise phase, which lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nm. This phase was initiated 1 mile west of Wittmundhafen Air Base Wittmund. The cruise phase was a stable and efficient segment of the flight, allowing the aircraft to maintain a steady altitude and speed.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its enroute descent phase, which started 2 miles north of Wittmund in Lower Saxony, Germany. The descent was steep, decreasing the aircraft's altitude by 1,023 ft in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 4 nm. This phase was characterized by a rapid loss of altitude, which was necessary to prepare the aircraft for landing.
The final approach to runway 26 at Wittmundhafen Air Base was initiated from the east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 260.0° and an altitude of 526 ft agl (above ground level). The approach was conducted at a distance of 2 nm from the runway threshold, with the aircraft maintaining a steady speed and altitude.
The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 48 kt. The touchdown point was 75 m beyond the touchdown zone, which was slightly beyond the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -146 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C, with a wind speed of 1 kt from 270°. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 1 kt was present. The total landing distance was 1,202 m, which was 50% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.7 m from the centerline, indicating that the aircraft may have drifted slightly during the rollout phase.
Overall, the flight was conducted efficiently, with the aircraft using 4 kg of fuel to cover a total distance of 15 nm in 13 minutes. The landing was smooth and well-executed, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a good speed and rate.

The Cessna Skyhawk successfully landed at ETNT Wittmundhafen Air Base, achieving a score of 90.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 260.0° at 2 nautical miles and 526 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning perfectly with the runway touchdown zone.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 75 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the ideal spot. However, the touchdown speed of 48 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -146 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory, demonstrating a gentle and stable landing.
The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot at 270°. The crosswind was negligible, at 0 knots, which contributed to the smooth landing. The runway length of 2,425 meters was sufficient for the aircraft to come to a stop, with a total landing distance of 1,202 meters, which is 50% of the runway length.
Although the pilot achieved a good landing, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being 7.7 meters off-centerline. This minor misalignment could be attributed to the pilot's slight overcorrection or a minor miscalculation during the landing roll. Nevertheless, the overall performance of the pilot and the aircraft was commendable, and the landing was executed safely and efficiently.
