Flight narrative

Departing from DNKN Mallam Aminu International Airport in Kano, Nigeria, the PC-24 VIP aircraft began its journey with a taxiing period of 12 minutes, covering 2 nautical miles to reach the runway. The departure roll commenced on runway 06, with the aircraft taking off in 1,278 meters, or 37% of the runway's length, at a liftoff speed of 117 knots. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 38°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 274°.

As the aircraft climbed to its enroute level, it ascended from 2,385 feet above sea level to 36,996 feet, an increase of 34,611 feet in 21 minutes, covering 93 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase that followed lasted for 1,594 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 1,972 nautical miles. The descent phase that began 24 miles west of FLCS Chinsali Airport in Zambia saw the aircraft decrease its altitude from 37,009 feet to 14,990 feet in 16 minutes, covering 107 nautical miles. The flight continued with several enroute level cruise and descent phases, with the final approach to runway 17 at FWUU Mzuzu Airport in Malawi commencing from the north at an altitude of 401 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 17 was executed with a touchdown speed of 107 knots, slightly below the target speed of 109 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 107 meters, and the touchdown rate was fair at -235 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 19.8 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 778 meters, or 60% of the runway's length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 17 at FWUU Mzuzu Airport from the north was executed with good quality, with the aircraft established on the localizer at 1 nm and 401 ft above ground level, heading 156.0°. The approach was conducted in a 3 kt headwind and a 1 kt crosswind, with a temperature of 19 °C. The threshold height was good, allowing for a smooth transition to the flare.

The aircraft touched down at a speed of 107 kt, which was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown distance was 107 m, indicating a good control of the descent. However, the touchdown rate of -235 fpm was slightly higher than desired, suggesting a slightly steeper descent than intended. The runway touchdown position was 9.6 m off-centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The threshold speed was slightly below the target of 110 kt, at 109 kt.

The rollout phase was marked by a slight misalignment from the centreline, with the aircraft deviating by 19.8 m. The total landing distance was 778 m, which was 60% of the runway length. Overall, the landing performance was good, with a score of 90.6%. While there were some minor deviations, the pilot demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
