Landing on runway 17 at KATY Watertown Regional Airport in the CRJ900

Landing Score 97.17 %

Landing Summary

This is a comprehensive report on the final approach and landing of the Canadair Regional Jet (CRJ) 900 aircraft at Watertown Regional Airport (KATY). The flight crew achieved a final approach score of 97.2%, demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control during the critical phases of flight.

The approach was conducted from the north, with a heading of 176.0° and an altitude of 1,086 feet above ground level (AGL). At a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway, the aircraft was at a suitable altitude for the final approach. The crew successfully landed on runway 17, which has a length of 2,098 meters.

One notable aspect of the landing was the good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft touched down at the correct point along the runway. The threshold speed was also satisfactory at 141 knots, suggesting that the crew applied the appropriate amount of reverse thrust to slow the aircraft down. The touchdown distance of 229 meters was also within acceptable limits.

However, there was a minor issue with the runway touchdown position, as the aircraft landed 3.1 meters away from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a miscalculation of the runway alignment.

Weather conditions played a minor role in the landing, with a moderate temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 7 knots from 105°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, but this was partially offset by a 2-knot headwind, reducing the impact on the approach.

The total landing distance of 1,315 meters was within 63% of the available runway length, indicating a satisfactory stopping distance. The runway rollout alignment was impressive, with the aircraft maintaining a very good alignment along the length of the runway.

Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of skill and control from the flight crew, with only minor issues to address in terms of runway alignment and touchdown position.
