Landing on runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza

Landing Score 99.97 %

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 47.0° at 2 nautical miles and 515 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach allowed the pilot to maintain control and execute a smooth landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on the runway at a speed of 62 knots, which was well within the target range. The touchdown distance of 307 meters was also satisfactory, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent. The touchdown rate of -115 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, suggesting that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's energy and rate of descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 331°. This meant that there was no crosswind or headwind to contend with, making the landing even more challenging. The pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft safely and smoothly in these conditions is a testament to their skill and expertise.

The total landing distance of 768 meters was 42% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's energy and rate of descent to achieve a safe and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing.

Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed and safe landing, with the pilot demonstrating exceptional skill and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases. The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza's performance was impressive, and the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft safely and smoothly in challenging conditions is a credit to their training and experience.
