The aircraft, identified as Icon A5, successfully completed a landing at Lancaster County-Mc Whirter Field, achieving an impressive score of 80.7%. The final approach to landing was executed from 1 nautical mile to 1 nautical mile at an altitude of 63 feet above ground level (agl). As the aircraft approached the touchdown point, it began its descent from 50 feet agl to 0 feet agl, demonstrating a controlled and precise rate of descent.
The aircraft's touchdown speed of 50 knots was deemed good, indicating that the pilot had effectively managed the aircraft's speed during the landing. Furthermore, the touchdown rate of -47 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, signifying that the aircraft touched down smoothly and without any excessive deceleration. However, it's worth noting that the touchdown point was 255 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing path.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 80°F and a wind speed of 5 knots at 224°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the successful landing, as they provided a relatively stable and predictable environment for the aircraft to operate in.
During the landing rollout, the aircraft maintained an altitude of 419 feet above sea level (asl) and traveled a distance of 483 feet. This indicates that the pilot had effectively managed the aircraft's speed and direction during the rollout, bringing the aircraft to a stop in a relatively short distance. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the pilot's skill and expertise in handling the Icon A5 aircraft.
