Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Arrival Final 1

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Landing Summary

The aircraft Tecnam P2008 JC established a final approach to runway 26R at LSZL Locarno Airport from the east, tracking a heading of 258.0° at 1 nm and 478 ft AGL.

At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 55 kt.

Touchdown occurred 213 m down the runway at a speed of 37 kt, which was good, with a touchdown rate of -47 fpm that was perfect, and runway touchdown alignment was very good.

Maintain the current technique while fine-tuning the touchdown point toward the typical 300 m aim point to optimise runway usage, and continue to monitor the modest cross-wind component to preserve alignment consistency.
