Landing Summary

The B-2 Spirit aircraft has successfully landed at KSZL Whiteman Air Force Base, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in flight execution. The final approach from the south was executed at a heading of 10.0°, approximately 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 427 feet above ground level (agl). This approach path allowed the aircraft to align perfectly with the runway during touchdown.

Upon touching down on runway 01, the aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a smooth transition from landing to touchdown. The threshold speed was also well-maintained at 128 knots, indicating a competent approach and landing procedure. The touchdown point occurred 655 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, a relatively precise landing considering the overall length of the runway.

The touchdown speed of 122 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -158 feet per minute (fpm) indicates a safe and controlled descent. Notably, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately position the aircraft during the final stages of the approach. Given the favorable local weather conditions - a temperature of 86°F and a wind speed of 0 knots with a direction of 95° - the pilots were able to execute a relatively straight-in approach without any significant deviation.

The total landing distance of 4,493 feet, which equates to approximately 36% of the runway's 12,413-foot length, suggests a successful landing procedure. The runway rollout alignment, which involved the aircraft's alignment with the runway centerline after touchdown, was also perfect, further emphasizing the pilots' competence in executing a well-coordinated landing.

Overall, the B-2 Spirit's landing at KSZL Whiteman Air Force Base was characterized by a high degree of precision and control. The aircraft's successful final approach, landing, and rollout demonstrate the skill and expertise of the pilots involved, achieving a final score of 95.5%.
