Landing on runway 01 at AYBN Baina Airstrip in the Kodiak 100

Landing Score 88.35 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at AYBN Baina Airstrip, but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 69.0° at 0 nm and 100 ft above ground level (agl). The pilot managed to land on runway 01, which has a length of 426 meters.

Upon touchdown, the pilot encountered some issues. The threshold speed was slightly above the target at 74 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been a bit too aggressive in their approach. Additionally, the touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. This suggests that the pilot may have been unable to slow down the aircraft sufficiently before touchdown, resulting in a fast touchdown speed of 70 knots.

The touchdown rate was fair at -290 feet per minute (fpm), which is a reasonable rate considering the circumstances. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's inability to maintain a perfectly aligned approach.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 28°C and a light wind of 1 knot at 270°. There was no crosswind, but a slight tailwind of 1 knot, which may have contributed to the pilot's difficulties in slowing down the aircraft.

Despite the challenges, the pilot managed to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance of 324 meters, which is 76% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the landing was successful, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of slowing down the aircraft before touchdown and maintaining a perfectly aligned approach.
