See Pattern Base Leg

Bank angle in the pattern is conventionally kept to 20 to 30 degrees, and the base-to-final turn is where that convention earns its keep. Stall speed rises with bank because the wing must produce more lift in a turn. Roughly 7 per cent higher at 30 degrees, about 19 per cent at 45, and around 40 per cent at 60. At 65 kt on base you don't have much margin to spend steepening a turn to salvage an overshoot.

Flight narrative

Departing from Cibao International Airport, the Cessna Skyhawk began its takeoff roll on runway 11, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 68 kt in a distance of 609 m, which accounted for 23% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a smooth and efficient turn, covering a distance of 1 nm in 13 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was equally impressive, with the aircraft completing the maneuver in less than 1 nm in 22 seconds. The pilot's skillful handling of the aircraft was evident throughout the pattern, with a well-executed downwind turn and base leg, followed by a final approach from the west at a heading of 102.0° and an altitude of 308 ft above ground level. The landing itself was notable for its precision, with the aircraft touching down 49 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 51 kt, resulting in an excellent touchdown rate of -55 fpm.

The flight's performance was further highlighted by its fuel efficiency, with the aircraft consuming only 1 kg of fuel over a total distance of 8 nm, which was completed in 5 minutes. The pilot's adherence to standard operating procedures and their ability to adapt to the local weather conditions resulted in a safe and efficient flight, with a perfect runway touchdown alignment and a good threshold height. The threshold speed, however, was slightly higher than optimal at 75 kt, but this did not compromise the overall outcome of the flight.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 11 at MDST Cibao International Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 102.0° at 0 nm and 308 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the desired level, reaching 75 kt.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown point was 49 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. Nevertheless, the touchdown speed of 51 kt was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -55 fpm was exceptional, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16 °C and a gentle tailwind of 1 kt, contributed to a smooth and stable approach.

The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout. The overall performance of the landing was impressive, with a score of 97.1% reflecting the high level of skill and precision displayed by the pilot. The slight overrun and high threshold speed were the only minor deviations from the ideal, but overall, the landing was a credit to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's capabilities.
