Flaps Fully Retracted at 12:16:11 |
Overall, the aircraft landing score of 88.0% indicates a fairly successful landing, but there are areas that could be improved upon to achieve an even higher score.
Starting with the Approach Phase, it is commendable that the glideslope alignment was excellent and that the threshold speed of 132 knots was good. This shows a good level of control and precision during the final approach to the runway.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, while the threshold height was good, it is noted that there was a very poor landing flare. The landing flare is crucial in ensuring a smooth touchdown and minimizing the impact on the aircraft. Improving this aspect of the landing technique could lead to a much smoother touchdown.
In the Touchdown Phase, it is positive to see that the touchdown rate was good at -167 ft/m and that the touchdown speed of 118 knots was also good. However, it is concerning that the touchdown point was 511 meters beyond the touchdown zone. Additionally, the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position by 6.3 meters from the centerline is something that should be addressed to ensure the aircraft lands accurately on the runway.
To improve the overall landing score, focus on refining the landing flare technique to ensure a smoother touchdown, and work on better alignment and positioning during the touchdown phase to land squarely within the designated touchdown zone. With continued practice and attention to these areas, you can strive for a more precise and controlled landing in the future. Keep up the good work and aim for incremental improvements to achieve a higher landing score in your future flights.
