Landing on runway 28 at 29S Gardiner in the XCub

Landing Score 92.44 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 28 at 29S Gardiner with a satisfactory approach quality, demonstrating good control and precision. The final approach was initiated from a distance of 1 nm and an altitude of 476 ft agl, heading 299.0° from the south east. The threshold height was well managed, allowing for a smooth transition to the runway. The threshold speed of 58 kt was also within acceptable limits, indicating a well-executed flare.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft exhibited a good touchdown distance of 676 ft, and a touchdown speed of 46 kt, both of which were within the desired parameters. However, the touchdown rate of -218 fpm was slightly higher than ideal, suggesting a slightly steeper descent than intended. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft remained centered on the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 60°F and a gentle headwind of 3 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.

The total landing distance of 1,251 ft, which accounted for 38% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing was scored 92.4%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
