Arrival Approach

Next time

Add power on short final to hold 64 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.

What linked up: You crossed the threshold at 48 kt against a target of 64 kt, below reference speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator, hold 64 kt down to the threshold.

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.

Flight narrative

Departing from Locarno Airport's runway 26R, the Tecnam P2008 JC began its takeoff roll, accelerating down the 802-meter-long runway. The aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 53 knots, covering a distance of 504 meters, which represented 63% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 6 knots from a direction of 260 degrees.

As the aircraft climbed out of Locarno, it transitioned into an enroute climb phase, reaching an altitude of 2,027 feet above sea level over the town of Magadino. The climb was characterized by a steady increase in altitude, with a vertical rise of 776 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a horizontal distance of 2 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 2,027 feet above sea level over Vira, a distance of 5 nautical miles away. This phase lasted for 4 minutes, allowing the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a steady pace.

As the aircraft began its final approach to runway 26R at Locarno Airport, it aligned itself with the runway, heading 258.0 degrees at an altitude of 639 feet above ground level, 1 nautical mile from the threshold. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 32 knots and a distance of 139 meters, representing a good touchdown distance. The touchdown rate was an impressive -83 feet per minute, indicating a well-controlled descent. The aircraft's alignment with the runway was perfect, and the landing was completed with a minimal use of fuel, totaling 1 kilogram for the entire flight, which covered a distance of 10 nautical miles in 8 minutes.
