Landing on runway 21 at KGBG Galesburg Mun in the Piper PA-24-250 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!
