Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, an RJ85, then departed from runway 18 at James M Cox Dayton International Airport (KDAY). The takeoff distance was 1,089 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 129 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 11 knots blowing from a direction of 150 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 10 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb overhead Vandalia, Ohio, and ascended from an altitude of 2,042 feet above sea level to 32,136 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,094 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 98 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, starting 2 miles west of Parr Zanesville Airport (42I). This phase lasted for 23 minutes and covered a distance of 133 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 7 miles southeast of Greater Gortner Airport (2MD8) in Oakland, Maryland. The descent took 19 minutes, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude from 32,112 feet above sea level to 1,567 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,545 feet. The distance covered during this phase was 95 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 1 mile northwest of Fairfax, Virginia. This phase lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 15 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 01 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 357.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,603 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 01 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 107 knots and a touchdown rate of -95 feet per minute. The touchdown distance was 363 meters, which was within the acceptable limits. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.9 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots blowing from a direction of 30 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,283 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 350 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 80 minutes. The aircraft used 2,670 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Score 96.46 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) with a score of 96.5%. The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 357.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,603 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing on runway 01, the aircraft demonstrated good performance, with a threshold height that was satisfactory. The threshold speed of 114 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 363 meters was within the expected range, and the touchdown speed of 107 knots was also good. Notably, the touchdown rate was excellent, with a rate of -95 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 4.9 meters off-centerline. This may be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots at 30°. The crosswind component was 6 knots, while the headwind component was 8 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,283 meters was 59% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to land efficiently and effectively. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain control and stability during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good performance and control. However, the slight deviation in the runway touchdown position and the relatively short landing distance may be areas for improvement in future landings.
