Landing on runway 02 at KUZA Rock Hill\/York Co\/Bryant in the PA28 Archer II

Landing Score 98.74 %

Landing Summary

Great job on achieving a landing score of 98.7%! Your performance during the Approach Phase was a bit lacking, with the descent path exceeding the glideslope limit and the speed slightly below target. However, you made up for it during the Landing Phase with a good threshold height and an excellent landing flare.

The Touchdown Phase was nearly flawless, with a perfect touchdown rate, on-target speed, and touchdown distance well within the touchdown zone. Additionally, your runway touchdown position was only 6 ft from the centerline, showcasing excellent precision and control.

Finally, during the Rollout Phase, your runway alignment was very good, ensuring a smooth and efficient exit from the runway.

Overall, your performance was impressive, and with a few adjustments in the Approach Phase, you could have a near-perfect landing score. Keep up the great work and continue to strive for excellence in every phase of the landing process. Well done!
