What went well

Threshold crossed at 29 ft and 63 kt — both inside band
1.15 G at touchdown — inside band
Airborne in 2,188 ft — 32 % of the runway

What held you back

Departure Climb 3 — Heading variation 6.1 ° at 2 %, −1.33 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, −1.05 points
Arrival Final 1 — stall warning; speed limits at 0 %, −0.88 points

Next time

Departure

Hold the nose down a touch longer and let speed build to 83 kt before liftoff.

What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 63 kt, 20 kt below the 83 kt target.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 83 kt at liftoff

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 11 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 11 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 11 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna 208B, then departed from runway 10R at the Monterey Peninsula Airport (KMRY). The takeoff distance was 1,248 feet, which accounted for 18% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 63 knots.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 60°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 300°. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind was 6 knots. The enroute climb started 2 miles southeast of Del Rey Oaks, California, and reached an altitude of 5,908 feet above sea level (asl) from an initial altitude of 1,665 feet asl. This climb covered a distance of 10 nautical miles and took 6 minutes.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles northwest of Marina, California. This phase lasted for 5 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 6,218 feet asl to 4,288 feet asl, a decrease of 1,931 feet in 3 minutes, covering 8 nautical miles.

The flight continued with multiple level cruise phases and descents, each with varying altitudes and distances covered. The aircraft entered a level cruise phase 2 miles east of Day Valley, which lasted for 3 minutes and covered 6 nautical miles. Another descent started 3 miles west of Morgan Hill, where the aircraft descended from 4,060 feet asl to 3,585 feet asl, a decrease of 475 feet in 2 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles.

The final level cruise phase started 4 miles northwest of Morgan Hill and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 2,824 feet asl to 1,327 feet asl, a decrease of 1,497 feet in 3 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 30L at the Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (KSJC) was made from the southeast, heading 319.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,284 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was made on runway 30L, which had a length of 7,158 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 64 knots.

The touchdown point was 1,829 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was slightly fast at 68 knots. However, the touchdown rate was good at -199 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 66°F and a wind speed of 6 knots at 340°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots.

The total landing distance was 5,262 feet, which accounted for 74% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 37 feet from the centerline. The total flight distance was 56 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 39 minutes. The aircraft used 195 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 30L at KSJC Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport in the Cessna 208B
Landing Score 80.3 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at KSJC Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport, with a final approach score of 80.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southeast, heading 319.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 30L, which has a length of 7,158 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 64 knots. However, the touchdown speed was slightly higher than ideal at 68 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown.

The touchdown point was located 1,829 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. The touchdown rate was good at -199 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain a stable and aligned approach to the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 66°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 340°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 6 knots, which the pilot was able to effectively manage during the landing.

The total landing distance was 5,262 feet, which is 74% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it is not excessively long considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 37 feet from the centerline, indicating that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more precise alignment during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and runway rollout alignment.
