The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at Sion Airport (LSGS) with a score of 93.8%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 73.0° at 1 nautical mile and 569 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course for runway 07, which is 1,871 meters long.
Upon landing, the threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 75 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected.
The touchdown distance of 141 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold. The touchdown speed of 72 knots was also reported as good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to touch down at a safe speed. However, the touchdown rate of -220 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, which may indicate that the aircraft was not able to touch down as smoothly as desired.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. This is an important factor in ensuring a safe and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly below-target threshold speed. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
