Next time

Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 18°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Steepen the descent on final to bring the aircraft back down to the glideslope and cross the threshold at 50 ft.

What happened: The approach was flown off the glideslope, and crossing the threshold high like this usually carries the touchdown long.

Watch for: Watch the VASI or PAPI glideslope indication against the threshold crossing height of 50 ft.

See Arrival ApproachArrival Landing

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.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 21 at KGCN Grand Canyon National Park Airport was flown from the north-east on a heading of 222.0° at 1 nm and 497 ft agl. The aircraft descended from 717 ft agl to 161 ft agl in 48 seconds and met the stabilisation-gate criteria.

At threshold the aircraft was 62 ft agl, which was above target, and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 84 kt.

Touchdown occurred 366 m down the runway at a speed of 83 kt, with a vertical rate of -228 fpm rated fair. The touchdown point was 4.9 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance was 602 m, representing 22 % of the 2,743 m runway.

Rollout alignment was very good, keeping the aircraft centred for the remainder of the ground run.

Refine the flare to achieve a more neutral vertical rate and reduce the -228 fpm descent, which will smooth the touchdown. Adjust flare timing to keep the touchdown point within a tighter centreline tolerance, targeting alignment within a couple of metres of the runway centreline.
