Top opportunity

Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the PC-24 Cargo aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 29 at FMNC Mananara Nord Airport in Madagascar, with a takeoff distance of 678 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 114 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 15 knots blowing from a direction of 128 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a tailwind of 12 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead FMNC Mananara Nord Airport and took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,041 feet above sea level to 37,408 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,367 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 66 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase of the flight began 19 miles southwest of FMNX Mandritsara Airport in Madagascar and lasted for 112 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 747 nautical miles. The descent phase of the flight started 4 miles north of Phalombe in Malawi and took the aircraft from an altitude of 37,277 feet above sea level to 3,244 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,033 feet in 12 minutes, covering a distance of 25 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 27 at FWZA Zomba Airport in Malawi was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 259.0 degrees at an altitude of 581 feet above ground level and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 27 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 110 meters, a touchdown speed of 107 knots, and a touchdown rate of -210 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 9 knots blowing from a direction of 63 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 8 knots. The total landing distance was 520 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft was able to taxi to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 842 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 145 minutes. The aircraft used 673 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 27 at FWZA Zomba Airport in the Pilatus PC-24
Landing Score 99.75 %
Landing Summary

The PC-24 Cargo aircraft successfully landed at FWZA Zomba Airport, achieving a high score of 99.8%. The final approach to runway 27 was conducted from the east, with the aircraft heading 259.0° at 2 nautical miles and 581 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is essential for a smooth landing.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 107 knots, which was slightly below the threshold speed of 110 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 110 meters. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -210 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a slightly steeper descent than ideal. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.2 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 31°C and a wind speed of 9 knots at 63°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 8 knots. These conditions contributed to a relatively smooth landing.

The total landing distance was 520 meters, which is 42% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft and make a smooth touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, showing that the pilot was able to correct the slight misalignment during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and alignment.
