Landing on runway 01 at LSZA Lugano Airport in the Beechcraft Duke

Landing Score 90.18 %

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft Duke successfully landed at LSZA Lugano Airport, achieving a score of 90.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 21.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,751 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is crucial for a safe landing.

Upon reaching the threshold speed of 75 knots, the pilot was reminded to be cautious not to stall, as the speed was well below the target. The touchdown distance of 165 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 66 knots was also within acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's speed.

However, the touchdown rate of -291 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have maintained a more gradual descent. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 0°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot at 11°. The crosswind was negligible, and the headwind was minimal, making the landing conditions favorable.

The total landing distance of 393 meters was 38% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 7.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a minor issue with the aircraft's brakes or a slight deviation in the rollout.

Overall, the pilot's performance was commendable, and the landing was considered safe and successful. However, there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a more gradual descent and ensuring a more precise alignment during the rollout.
