The Tecnam P2002 JF aircraft, registered as SP2, successfully landed at KSAC Sacramento Executive Airport, achieving a remarkable score of 98.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-east, heading 214.0° at an altitude of 210 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 20, which has a length of 1,676 meters. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 53 knots. However, this minor deviation did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 132 meters was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 44 knots was well within the target range.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -88 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft touched down smoothly and with minimal deceleration, reducing the risk of damage to the aircraft and the runway. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's exceptional skill and control.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 5 knots from 138°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the pilot, and the aircraft performed well despite the gentle breeze.
The total landing distance of 331 meters was only 20% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the landing roll.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance capabilities. The Tecnam P2002 JF aircraft handled the landing with ease, and the pilot's exceptional control and decision-making skills ensured a safe and successful touchdown.
