Flaps Position 1 at 23:32:27 |
The DA40-NG aircraft successfully landed at LSZR Sankt Gallen Altenrhein Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 98.0°, and the aircraft was at 0 nm and 170 ft above ground level (agl) at this point. This indicates a precise and controlled descent, setting the stage for a smooth landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target of 65 kt. This suggests that the pilot was able to manage the aircraft's speed effectively, taking into account the runway conditions and the aircraft's performance. The touchdown distance of 117 m was also good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
The touchdown speed of 58 kt was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -96 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a critical aspect of a safe and successful landing. This suggests that the pilot was able to maintain the aircraft's alignment with the runway throughout the approach and landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt at 270°. This minimal wind made the landing even more challenging, as the pilot had to contend with a slight tailwind of 2 kt. Despite these conditions, the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and execute a perfect landing.
The total landing distance of 323 m was 24% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently, without overrunning the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and control during the landing process.
Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, demonstrating the pilot's expertise and proficiency in handling the DA40-NG aircraft.
