Top opportunity

Fixing the bounce

Arrival Touchdown

Fast at the threshold, normal flare, and the runway seems to refuse the aircraft. The instinctive fix - pushing it on - causes the next one. A fast aircraft forced onto the runway touches nosewheel-first or nearly so. The tell is a touchdown that feels soft followed by a bounce that steepens. Pilots fix the bounce recovery; the cause was the 10 knots at the threshold.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 11 at MDST Cibao International Airport from the west was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 106.0° at 1 nm and 564 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering at 66 kt, which may have been a result of the tailwind of 1 kt.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 308 m, indicating a well-executed flare. Unfortunately, the touchdown speed was slightly too fast at 51 kt, which may have been a result of the pilot's attempt to maintain control in the presence of the tailwind. The touchdown rate, however, was smooth at -134 fpm, demonstrating good control and stability. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway.

The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment. The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 94.3%. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind of 1 kt at 270°, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing. The absence of crosswind and the presence of a slight tailwind contributed to a relatively smooth and controlled landing.
