What held you back

Arrival Final 2 — GPWS warning; Approach angle 4.2 ° at 14 %, −1.10 points
Arrival Final 3 — GPWS warning; Approach angle 3.7 ° at 65 %, −0.48 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 69 %, −0.32 points

Next time

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

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.

The enroute level cruise started 6 miles southeast of Friant, California, and lasted for 20 minutes, covering a distance of 130 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 4 miles southwest of Pine Mountain Club, descending from 31,413 feet above sea level to 5,239 feet above sea level, a decrease of 26,174 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 88 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started again 11 miles southwest of Sunset Beach, lasting for 7 minutes, covering a distance of 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent 1 mile south of Yorba Linda, descending from 5,020 feet above sea level to 1,465 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,554 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 20R at John Wayne Orange County International Airport (KSNA) was made from the northeast, heading 208.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,385 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 20R, which had a length of 1,737 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 110 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 172 meters, and the touchdown speed was 106 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -482 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 24°C temperature and a wind speed of 12 knots at 190°. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 12 knots.

The total landing distance was 782 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect.

Landing on runway 20R at KSNA John Wayne Orange County International Airport in the Avro RJ85
Landing Score 94.52 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at KSNA John Wayne Orange County International Airport, achieving a score of 94.5%. The final approach was conducted from the north-east, heading 208.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,385 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing on runway 20R, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 110 knots, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing conditions. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 172 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 106 knots was also within acceptable limits.

One area of concern was the touchdown rate, which was reported as hard at -482 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly abrupt touchdown, which could potentially lead to issues with the landing gear or other aircraft systems. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.0 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the aircraft's approach path or landing technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 24°C and a wind speed of 12 knots from 190°. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 12 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing. However, the pilot successfully managed these conditions, and the runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a good touchdown distance and speed. However, the hard touchdown rate and slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position are areas that require attention to ensure optimal landing performance.
