The SR22 aircraft successfully landed at EGHK Penzance Heliport, achieving an overall score of 83.4%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the south-west, with a heading of 52.0° at an altitude of 135 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 71 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 223 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 65 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -121 feet per minute.
Despite the good landing performance, there were some areas for improvement. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.9 meters from the centreline, indicating that the pilot may have slightly deviated from the intended landing path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 16.0 meters from the centreline, suggesting that the pilot may have struggled to maintain a straight course during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 10 knots from a direction of 323°. This resulted in a crosswind component of 10 knots and a tailwind component of 1 knot. The total landing distance of 474 meters was 70% of the available runway length, indicating that the pilot had sufficient runway remaining to safely stop the aircraft.
Overall, while there were some minor issues with the landing, the SR22 aircraft performed well, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing phases.
