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.

Pilots fix the bounce recovery; the cause was the 10 knots at the threshold.

The enroute level cruise started 1 mile south of Dana, North Carolina, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, starting 1 mile north-east of Balfour, North Carolina, and descended from 3,751 feet above sea level to 2,678 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,073 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 5 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 35 at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport was from the south-east, heading 340.0°, at 1 nautical mile and 513 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was initiated at 0 feet above ground level. The aircraft then landed on runway 35, with a touchdown point 285 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 66 knots, which was a little fast, while the touchdown rate was good at -165 feet per minute.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 18°C, with a wind speed of 19 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 18 knots. The total landing distance was 1,003 meters, which was 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 129.8 meters from the centreline.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, successfully landed on runway 35 at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 340.0° at 1 nm and 513 ft above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a good threshold height, but unfortunately, the threshold speed was excessively high at 89 kt, which may indicate a slight miscalculation or overcorrection during the approach.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 285 m beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the ideal position. The touchdown speed of 66 kt was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -165 fpm was good, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 129.8 m from the centreline, which may have been caused by a crosswind or a miscalculation during the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were moderate, with a temperature of 18 °C and a wind speed of 19 kt at 320°. The crosswind component was 7 kt, while the headwind component was 18 kt. These conditions may have contributed to the misaligned touchdown and rollout.

The total landing distance was 1,003 m, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, considering the runway length of 2,140 m. However, the runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 129.8 m from the centreline, which may indicate a loss of control during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were several areas for improvement, including the excessive threshold speed, misaligned touchdown and rollout, and slightly fast touchdown speed. With some adjustments to the approach and landing technique, the pilot can improve the overall performance and safety of the landing.
