Arrival Final 4

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 11 at BGAA Aasiaat Airport, Greenland. The aircraft, an M500, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 87 knots. The takeoff distance was 366 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -7°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 69°.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 1,065 feet above sea level to 15,723 feet above sea level in just 9 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. This represented an increase of 14,658 feet in altitude.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 16 minutes and covered a distance of 52 nautical miles. This phase of the flight took place 17 miles southeast of Aasiaat, Greenland.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 43 miles northwest of Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. The descent was gradual, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 16,522 feet above sea level to 1,362 feet above sea level in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 44 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 09 at BGSF Kangerlussuaq Airport was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading 62.0° at an altitude of 1,206 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was smooth, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 78 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at -26 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.

The total landing distance was 793 meters, which accounted for 28% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 2 minutes to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 117 nautical miles and lasted for 54 minutes, using 104 kilograms of fuel. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -6°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 40°.

Landing Score 98.63 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft, identified as an M500, successfully landed at Kangerlussuaq Airport (BGSF) on runway 09. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 62.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,206 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated excellent control and precision, achieving a good threshold height and speed of 92 knots upon touchdown.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a distance of 472 meters, which is well within the acceptable range for a safe landing. However, the touchdown speed of 78 knots was slightly higher than the recommended speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate of -26 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was brought to a stop in a controlled and stable manner.

The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately align the aircraft with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -6°C and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 40°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots, which may have presented some challenges for the pilot.

Despite these weather conditions, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft's descent and landing, achieving a total landing distance of 793 meters, which is only 28% of the runway length. This indicates that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop in a relatively short distance, demonstrating excellent control and precision. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases. The aircraft's performance was also impressive, with a touchdown speed that was only slightly higher than recommended and a total landing distance that was well within the acceptable range.
