Hold the approach angle

Arrival Final 1

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

This flight was conducted in a Cessna 140 RA aircraft, departing from runway 25 at KVGT North Las Vegas Metropolitan International Airport. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway took 20 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

Upon departure, the aircraft took off from runway 25, with a takeoff distance of 200 meters, which accounted for 13% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 28 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 1 knot.

The enroute level cruise phase began overhead KVGT North Las Vegas Metropolitan International Airport and lasted for 4 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 269.0 degrees at an altitude of 334 feet above ground level (agl) and at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

The landing on runway 25 was successful, with a threshold speed of 41 knots and a touchdown distance of 112 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway length. However, the touchdown speed of 38 knots was slightly higher than the recommended speed, resulting in a hard touchdown rate of -427 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.5 meters.

The total landing distance was 243 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing process from the runway to the parking area took 27 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 7 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 41 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 5 kilograms.

Landing report
Landing on runway 25 at KVGT North Las Vegas Metropolitan International Airport in the Cessna-140 RA
Landing Score 90.28 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna-140 RA aircraft successfully landed at KVGT North Las Vegas Metropolitan International Airport, achieving a score of 90.3%. The final approach to runway 25 was conducted from the east, aligning with the heading of 269.0° at an altitude of 334 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold height and threshold speed, reaching 41 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory at 112 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 38 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a harder touchdown rate of -427 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft may have touched down with a bit more force than necessary, which could potentially lead to a bumpy ride for passengers.

In terms of runway alignment, the aircraft touched down slightly off-center, deviating by 3.5 meters from the centerline. This may be due to a slight misalignment during the final approach or a minor deviation during the landing roll. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability during the landing roll.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot from the same direction as the runway (269°). The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots. Overall, the landing was successful, but with some minor areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and alignment.
