Top opportunity

Improve the touchdown

Arrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

Departing Mactan Cebu International Airport's runway 04R, the Douglas DC-3 began its takeoff roll, accelerating down the 5,725-foot runway before lifting off at a speed of 98 knots. The aircraft's climb was initiated approximately one mile northeast of the airport, where it ascended from 965 feet above sea level to 6,669 feet, a gain of 5,704 feet in just five minutes, covering a distance of nine nautical miles.

As the aircraft continued its journey, it leveled off at cruise altitude four miles east of Compostela, maintaining a steady altitude for two minutes while covering three nautical miles. The descent phase began four miles southeast of Compostela, where the aircraft dropped from 5,936 feet to 1,806 feet in three minutes, a decrease of 4,130 feet, and covered five nautical miles. The final approach to runway 22L at Mactan Cebu International Airport was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 223.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 1,765 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 22L was executed with a threshold speed of 73 knots, which was above the target speed. However, the touchdown speed of 73 knots was too fast, resulting in a heavy touchdown rate of -1,090 feet per minute. The aircraft touched down 314 feet down the runway, with a touchdown position slightly misaligned from the centerline by 16 feet. The total landing distance was 1,945 feet, accounting for 17 percent of the runway's length.

Landing Summary

The Douglas DC-3 touched down on runway 22L at RPVM Mactan Cebu International Airport, a 11,223-foot-long runway, after a final approach from the north east. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a good threshold height, but the threshold speed was notably higher than the target, reaching 73 knots. This excessive speed contributed to a touchdown distance of 314 feet, which was within acceptable limits.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was still too high at 73 knots, resulting in a very heavy touchdown rate of -1,090 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly off-centre, deviating by 16 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 75°F and a 4-knot headwind, did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 1,945 feet was within 17% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout.

The rollout phase was marred by a significant deviation from the centreline, with the aircraft straying by 132 feet. This misalignment suggests that the pilot may have experienced difficulties maintaining directional control during the rollout. Overall, the landing scored 77.3%, reflecting a mix of positive and negative aspects. While the touchdown distance and landing distance were satisfactory, the excessive threshold speed, high touchdown speed, and poor rollout alignment detracted from the overall performance.

Flare
55 %
The flare strayed well off the target profile. The flare took all the sink out 30 ft agl above the runway and the aircraft then dropped the rest of the way, 941 fpm of sink coming back. Touchdown was 320 ft past the threshold. Hold the attitude and let it settle rather than pushing - a balloon is almost always excess speed, so the fix is on the approach, not in the flare.
