The Cessna C182 aircraft successfully landed at EGTR Elstree Airfield, achieving a score of 90.7%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 78.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,659 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 08, which has a length of 2,142 feet.
The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was above the target at 71 knots. This may indicate that the pilot could have made adjustments to the approach to achieve a more optimal speed. The touchdown distance of 750 feet was within acceptable limits, but the touchdown speed of 61 knots was slightly faster than desired. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -146 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent.
The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 32 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 64°F and a wind speed of 5 knots at 341°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,260 feet, which is 59% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft effectively during the approach and landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 51 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to the same factors that caused the initial touchdown position to be off-centre.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of speed and alignment. With some adjustments to the approach and landing technique, the pilot may be able to achieve an even higher score in the future.
