A Kodiak 100 aircraft embarked on a flight that began its enroute climb from an altitude of 1,960 feet above sea level (asl) over the Lampman Airport in Saskatchewan, Canada. The climb was rapid, achieving an increase of 1,613 feet in just 2 minutes and covering a distance of 3 nautical miles.
After reaching a cruising altitude, the aircraft continued its journey, entering into an enroute level cruise for 21 minutes. During this period, it covered 65 nautical miles. The level cruise phase of the flight started when the aircraft was 3 miles north-east of the Lampman Airport.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent from a height of 3,924 feet asl to 2,449 feet asl, a decrease of 1,475 feet in just 3 minutes and covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. The final part of the descent took place over the Virden West Airport in Manitoba, Canada.
Following the descent, the aircraft entered its final approach to runway 08 at the Virden/RJ (Bob) Andrew Field Regional Aerodrome. It approached the runway from the west at a heading of 88.0 degrees, maintaining an altitude of 667 feet above ground level (agl) and covering 1 nautical mile.
The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway with good threshold height and speed at 59 knots. The threshold speed was also good at 71 knots, and the touchdown distance was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was excellent at -78 feet per minute.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and winds coming from a direction of 116 degrees at 5 knots. The aircraft experienced a very slight crosswind of 2 kt while having a headwind of 4 kt.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway in just 1 minute, covering less than 1 nautical mile. Throughout the flight, the aircraft used a total of 86 kilograms of fuel and covered a distance of 80 nautical miles in 31 minutes. The landing distance of 540 meters was 40% of the runway length, with the runway being 1,342 meters long. The runway rollout alignment after landing was also perfect.

This comprehensive flight assessment reviews the successful landing of an aircraft, specifically a Kodiak 100, at the CYVD Virden / RJ (Bob) Andrew Field Regional Aerodrome. The aircraft demonstrated impressive approach control with a final score of 94.7%, showcasing proficiency in executing a safe and precise landing.
Commencing the final approach to runway 08, the pilot successfully navigated the aircraft from the west with a heading of 88.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 667 feet above ground level (AGL). The approach culminated in a spotless landing, with the threshold height being adequate and the aircraft maintaining a consistent speed of 71 knots. Additionally, the touchdown distance of 313 meters was within acceptable parameters, and the touchdown speed of 59 knots was well-controlled.
The descent profile exhibited excellent performance, with a touchdown rate of -78 feet per minute (fpm). This is an exceptionally low touchdown rate, indicating a smooth and controlled descent throughout the approach. Furthermore, the runway touchdown alignment was flawless, ensuring the aircraft's main landing gear touched down directly on the centerline of the runway.
At the time of landing, local weather conditions consisted of a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, with wind blowing gently at 5 knots from a direction of 116 degrees. Consequently, the crosswind and headwind were minimal, with the pilot effectively utilizing this favorable wind to maintain alignment and stability during touchdown. Considering these optimal weather conditions, the pilot's skill and precision in navigating the aircraft during the landing maneuver were even more impressive.
Upon completion of the landing, the aircraft rolled out with perfect alignment, adhering closely to the runway centerline throughout the rollout. The total landing distance of 540 meters was only 40% of the total runway length, further underscoring the pilot's exceptional control and proficiency in executing this critical phase of flight.
In summary, this assessment highlights an exemplary approach and landing executed by the pilot of the Kodiak 100. The aircraft's performance in various aspects, including speed control, touchdown rate, and runway alignment, demonstrated exceptional mastery of the pilot, ultimately resulting in a well-deserved score of 94.7%.
