Top opportunity

Maintain the centreline

Not the biggest loss in points — the one thing on this flight a check pilot would raise first, and the guide passage for it.

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Landing report
Landing on runway 35 at AYHX Herowena Airstrip in the Kodiak 100
Landing Score 96.1 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Kodiak 100, successfully landed at AYHX Herowena Airstrip, achieving a score of 96.1%. The final approach to runway 35 was initiated from the south, heading 351.0° at an altitude of 98 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 60 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed of 62 knots. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the landing, as the touchdown distance of 44 meters was considered good. The touchdown rate of -48 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 52°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The runway length of 548 meters was sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which was 210 meters, or 38% of the runway.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 96.1%. The combination of good weather conditions, proper aircraft alignment, and controlled descent contributed to the successful outcome of the landing.
