The flight began with a departure roll from runway 10 at LSZR Sankt Gallen Altenrhein Airport. The Cessna C172 aircraft accelerated down the runway, reaching a liftoff speed of 61 kt. The takeoff distance was 424 m, which accounted for 32% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt from a direction of 269 °, resulting in a slight tailwind.

After taking off, the pilot entered a left-hand pattern, navigating the aircraft around the airport. The entry into the pattern was swift, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nm in just 21 seconds. As the pilot continued with the pattern, the aircraft encountered a crosswind from the runway 10, which required a slight adjustment in the flight path. The distance covered during this phase was 1 nm in 44 seconds.

The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway. This maneuver required a distance of 2 nm, and the aircraft maintained a steady heading of 67.3 °. The downwind leg itself was 2 nm long and took 66 seconds to complete. Following this, the pilot executed a base leg turn, again with a 45-degree angle to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nm. The base leg itself was 1 nm long and took 56 seconds to complete.

As the pilot approached the final turn, the aircraft covered a distance of less than 1 nm in just 27 seconds. The final approach to runway 10 was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 99.0 ° at an altitude of 0 nm and 184 ft above ground level.

The landing itself was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 53 kt. The touchdown distance was 201 m, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -137 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from a direction of 267 °, resulting in a slight tailwind. The total landing distance was 510 m, which accounted for 39% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.

The total flight distance was 7 nm, and the flight took 6 minutes to complete. Notably, the aircraft used 0 kg of fuel during the flight, suggesting that the pilot had optimized the flight path and managed the aircraft's resources efficiently.

Landing Summary

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at LSZR Sankt Gallen Altenrhein Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The final approach was executed from the west, heading 99.0° at an altitude of 184 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. This indicates a precise and controlled descent, setting the stage for a smooth landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a threshold speed slightly above the target at 64 knots. This minor deviation from the ideal speed did not seem to affect the overall landing, as the touchdown distance of 201 meters was considered good. The touchdown speed of 53 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the rate of descent was smooth at -137 feet per minute. These factors combined to produce a very good runway touchdown alignment, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from 267°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 1 knot, which did not appear to impact the landing. The total landing distance of 510 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway length, was also within acceptable limits.

The rollout alignment after touchdown was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft and smoothly transitioned from the landing phase to the rollout phase. Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of skill and proficiency in the pilot, with a well-executed final approach, smooth touchdown, and controlled rollout.
