The flight began with the aircraft, a Cessna 414A, taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 23 at KSFZ North Central State Airport, with a takeoff distance of 2,321 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 97 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 57°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 174°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 23, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 13 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 18 seconds, covering a similar distance.

The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind leg of the pattern, which took 52 seconds to complete and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The base leg turn was a short 1 nautical mile, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees and a turn radius of 8.9°. The final approach to runway 23 was made from the north-east, with a heading of 212.0° and an altitude of 306 feet above ground level, at a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway.

The landing on runway 23 was completed at a speed of 105 knots, which was slightly higher than the threshold speed. The touchdown point was 348 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 82 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -119 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 55°F and a wind speed of 8 knots from 177°, resulting in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.

The total landing distance was 2,705 feet, which accounted for 54% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft came to a stop without any issues. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took approximately 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, and the flight used 617 pounds of fuel.

Landing on runway 23 at KSFZ North Central State Airport in the Cessna 414A

Landing Score 96.43 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 414A aircraft successfully landed at KSFZ North Central State Airport, achieving a high score of 96.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 212.0° at 1 nm and 306 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good alignment with the runway during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 23.

The runway length at KSFZ North Central State Airport is 5,004 ft, providing a sufficient margin for the aircraft to land safely. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly too high at 105 kt, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to reduce the speed further to achieve a smoother touchdown.

The touchdown point was 348 ft beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 82 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -119 fpm, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing without any significant shock. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 55°F and a wind speed of 8 kt at 177°. The crosswind component was 5 kt, while the headwind component was 7 kt, which is relatively minor and did not pose a significant challenge to the landing.

The total landing distance was 2,705 ft, which is 54% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to land safely and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. The minor deviations in threshold speed and touchdown speed did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
