Landing on runway 31 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport in the F-35B Lightning II

Landing Score 89.27 %

Landing Summary

The F-35B Lightning II aircraft successfully landed at KLGA LaGuardia Airport, but with some areas for improvement. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 301.0° at 2 nautical miles and 338 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 31, which has a length of 2,131 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was too high at 190 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to reduce the touchdown speed. The touchdown point was 54 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to make a more precise touchdown. The touchdown speed of 154 knots was a little fast, and the touchdown rate of -288 feet per minute (fpm) was fair.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the approach. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 17 knots at 260°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,006 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the rollout.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement in terms of threshold speed, touchdown speed, and runway alignment. With some adjustments to the pilot's technique, the F-35B Lightning II can achieve even more precise and efficient landings.
