Landing on runway 27 at EGPB Sumburgh Airport in the Douglas DC-3

Landing Score 98.33 %

Landing Summary

Great job on the aircraft landing score of 98.3%! Let's break down the different phases of the landing to see what went well and where there may be room for improvement.

During the Approach Phase, it's clear that the pilot did an excellent job maintaining glideslope alignment. This is crucial for a smooth and safe landing. The only slight issue was that the speed was a little below target. While it's good to err on the side of caution when it comes to landing speed, it's important to ensure that it doesn't drop too far below the recommended threshold.

Moving on to the Landing Phase, it's fantastic to see that the threshold height was good and that the landing flare was executed perfectly. The landing flare is a critical part of the landing process as it helps to reduce the rate of descent and ensure a smooth touchdown. It seems like the pilot nailed this aspect of the landing.

In the Touchdown Phase, the touchdown rate was good and the speed was on target. Additionally, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone is impressive. It shows that the pilot had excellent control and precision during this phase of the landing. The fact that the runway touchdown position was only 2.5 meters from the centerline is also a testament to the pilot's skill and accuracy.

Finally, during the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off at 5.6 meters from the centerline. This is an area where there may be some room for improvement. Ensuring proper runway alignment is essential for safety and efficiency during landing.

Overall, this landing score is a testament to the pilot's skill and proficiency. The pilot demonstrated excellent control, precision, and decision-making throughout the different phases of the landing. Keep up the great work, and continue to strive for perfection in all aspects of your flying. Well done!
