What went well

Touched down at -124 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 179 m in — inside the full-score zone
Rollout controlled — 19 % of the runway used

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 16 %, −1.74 points
Departure Roll — taxi light on should off; g force 0.03 to 1.04 g at 59 %, Runway alignment max 11.07 m at 79 %, −1.22 points
Arrival Taxi — landing lights on should be off, then taxi light off should be on, −0.48 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.

Landing on runway 21 at KGBG Galesburg Mun in the Piper PA-24 Comanche
Landing Score 87.81 %
Landing Summary

Overall, your aircraft landing score of 87.8% is a solid performance, especially considering the challenges you faced during the different phases of the landing process.

In the Approach Phase, it is important to maintain a descent path that stays within the glideslope limit in order to ensure a safe and smooth landing. While your descent path was poor in this instance, there is room for improvement in future landings by focusing on maintaining the correct altitude and descent rate.

During the Landing Phase, it is crucial to have a threshold height that aligns with the target in order to execute a successful landing. Additionally, having a stable and controlled landing flare is essential for a smooth touchdown. While these aspects were lacking in your landing, recognizing these areas for improvement can lead to better performances in the future.

In the Touchdown Phase, it is commendable that your touchdown rate was smooth, even though your speed was above target. Additionally, landing within the touchdown zone and slightly off-centre from the runway centerline shows good control and precision during the landing process. Landing in a crosswind of 16 knots is a challenging feat, so congratulations on successfully managing this aspect of the landing.

Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, maintaining good runway alignment is key for a safe and controlled landing. It is encouraging to see that your alignment was very good, indicating strong piloting skills in managing the aircraft during this phase.

Overall, while there were areas for improvement identified in each phase of the landing process, your overall score of 87.8% is a testament to your skill and ability as a pilot. Keep up the good work and continue to focus on areas of improvement to further enhance your landing capabilities. Well done!
