Landing on runway 16 at KADS Addison Airport in the Horten Ho229

Landing Score 97.68 %

Landing Summary

The Horten Ho 229 aircraft successfully landed at KADS Addison Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 160.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,604 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 78 knots, which was well within the target range. The touchdown distance of 295 feet was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The aircraft's touchdown rate of -126 feet per minute was particularly noteworthy, as it demonstrated a high degree of precision and control during the landing phase.

However, there were a few minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Additionally, the threshold speed was above the target range at 88 knots, which may have been a result of the aircraft's high speed during the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 94°F and a wind speed of 11 knots from 143°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 11 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's high threshold speed.

Despite these minor issues, the overall performance of the Horten Ho 229 during the landing was impressive. The total landing distance of 997 feet was only 18% of the runway length, indicating a high degree of precision and control during the landing phase. Furthermore, the runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to maintain a stable and controlled trajectory during the post-landing phase.

Overall, the landing of the Horten Ho 229 at KADS Addison Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. While there were a few minor issues with the landing, the aircraft's overall performance was impressive, and it is clear that the pilots have a good understanding of the aircraft's capabilities and limitations.
