The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at 4FL5 Ridge Landing Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing techniques. The aircraft's final approach was conducted from the northwest, heading 149.0°, at an altitude of 300 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
The pilot's control of the aircraft during the final approach was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 57 knots, which was well below the target speed. This indicates that the pilot was able to maintain a safe airspeed and avoid stalling the aircraft, which is a critical aspect of a successful landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was equally impressive, with a touchdown distance of 138 meters, which is a good indication of the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and touch down smoothly. The touchdown speed of 47 knots was also good, and the touchdown rate of -169 feet per minute was within acceptable limits.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a straight and level approach to the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 7 knots at 61°, presented a moderate crosswind component, but the pilot was able to handle it effectively.
The total landing distance of 232 meters, which is 25% of the runway length, is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a safe stop.
Overall, the landing of the Cessna 208B at 4FL5 Ridge Landing Airport was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the entire process.
