Flight narrative

Departing Joint Base Andrews, the F-35B Lightning II rolled down runway 01L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 193 kt in 1,065 meters, 38% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 32 °C and a wind of 10 kt at 230°, presented a moderate crosswind component of 8 kt and a tailwind component of 6 kt.

As the aircraft climbed out of Joint Base Andrews, it transitioned into a steady enroute climb, reaching an altitude of 2,759 ft asl over Forestville, Maryland. The climb phase was characterized by a rapid ascent, increasing the aircraft's altitude by 1,937 ft in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 10 nm. The aircraft then began a controlled descent, reducing its altitude by 571 ft in 2 minutes, covering 16 nm, before resuming a climb phase over Greenbriar, Virginia. This climb phase was more pronounced, with the aircraft increasing its altitude by 44,072 ft in 7 minutes, covering 96 nm, before leveling off at 46,343 ft asl.

The F-35B Lightning II continued on its enroute cruise, maintaining a steady altitude for 9 minutes, covering 131 nm, before beginning its descent into Wilmington International Airport. The descent phase was marked by a rapid loss of altitude, decreasing from 45,562 ft asl to 2 ft asl in just 4 minutes, covering 54 nm. The aircraft then executed a go-around, before making a final approach to runway 35, touching down at a speed of 124 kt and a touchdown distance of 368 m. The total landing distance was 1,661 m, 78% of the available runway length, with a slightly misaligned runway touchdown position and rollout alignment. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, completing the flight with a total distance of 354 nm and a fuel consumption of 3,237 kg.

Landing Summary

The F-35B Lightning II touched down on runway 35 at KILM Wilmington International Airport, demonstrating a good threshold height and speed of 148 kt. The aircraft maintained a steady descent, ultimately achieving a touchdown speed of 124 kt, which was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate was notably hard at -511 fpm, indicating a slightly aggressive approach.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's wheels made contact with the runway at a distance of 368 m, which was within the expected range. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.5 m from the centreline, a deviation that could be attributed to the crosswind conditions. The local weather, with a temperature of 32 °C and wind speeds of 10 kt at 230 °, presented a challenging environment for the landing. The crosswind component of 9 kt and tailwind component of 3 kt likely contributed to the slight misalignment.

The F-35B Lightning II's rollout phase was also marked by a slight deviation from the centreline, with the aircraft drifting 8.6 m off course. Despite this, the total landing distance of 1,661 m was within 78% of the runway length, indicating a controlled and stable rollout. Overall, the landing performance of the F-35B Lightning II scored 85.6%, reflecting a good but not exceptional performance in the challenging conditions.
