What went well

Touched down at -52 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 43 ft and 58 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 4.10 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Rollout — Landing distance 1,125 m at 0 %, −3.95 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, Heading variation 1.2 ° at 0 %, −3.03 points
Arrival Final 1 — Heading variation -1.8 ° at 0 %, bank angle up to 20.0 ° at 56 %, −2.40 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The enroute climb began overhead Saanen in the Canton de Berne, Switzerland. The aircraft climbed from 3,907 feet above sea level (asl) to 4,895 ft asl, gaining 988 feet in altitude in just 1 minute and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The enroute descent commenced 1 mile northeast of Saanen. The aircraft descended from 4,903 ft asl to 3,521 ft asl, decreasing in altitude by 1,381 feet in 3 minutes and covering 4 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield was from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 133.0° at 1 nautical mile and 211 feet agl. The landing on runway 14 at LSTS Sankt Stephan Airfield saw the aircraft touch down at a speed of 50 knots. The landing was assessed as good, with a touchdown rate of -46 ft/min. The touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline. At the time of landing, the temperature was 15°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 11°, resulting in a crosswind of 8 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots.

The total landing distance covered was 1,125 meters, which was 123% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment following landing was reported as very good. Upon exiting the runway, the aircraft maintained an average speed of 13 knots.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 7 nautical miles, lasting 7 minutes and consuming 3 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

Firstly, let's acknowledge the positive aspects of the aircraft landing score. The approach phase was commendable with excellent glideslope alignment and a good threshold speed of 59 knots. Additionally, the touchdown rate of -46 ft/m and touchdown speed of 50 knots were both solid indicators of a well-controlled touchdown phase.

However, there are areas that require improvement to enhance the overall landing performance. In the approach phase, it is important to address the poor heading alignment and ensure better alignment to prevent any potential safety risks. Additionally, the landing flare needs significant improvement as it was very poor, indicating a lack of finesse in executing the landing.

During the landing phase, it is crucial to focus on maintaining a stable bank angle and improving the landing heading for a smoother touchdown. The threshold height was good, but attention should be given to enhancing the overall landing stability to prevent any potential runway excursions.

Furthermore, the touchdown point being excessively long and slightly misaligned from the centerline are factors that need to be addressed to ensure optimal runway utilization and alignment.

Lastly, it is essential to highlight the warning of landing with a 6 knot tailwind. This is a critical safety concern that should be avoided to prevent any risks during landing.

Overall, while there are areas that require improvement, there were positive aspects to build upon. By focusing on enhancing key areas such as heading alignment, landing flare, bank angle stability, touchdown point, and avoiding tailwind landings, the landing performance can be significantly improved. Tailoring training and practice sessions to address these specific areas will lead to a more efficient and safe landing experience. Keep up the hard work and continue to strive for excellence in every aspect of the landing process.
