Arrival Approach

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Landing Summary

The North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco approached runway 21 at KGCN Grand Canyon National Park Airport from the north east, tracking a heading of 221.0° at 1 nm and 816 ft agl. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable, with sink rate too high and off the glideslope. The final descent proceeded from 1,583 ft agl to -21 ft agl in 59 seconds.

The threshold height of 89 ft agl was significantly above the target, and the threshold speed of 102 kt was well above the target.

Touchdown occurred 539 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a speed of 82 kt that met the good rating and a vertical rate of minus 159 fpm also rated good. The aircraft touched down 9.2 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance was 1,279 m, representing 47 % of the 2,743 m runway.

During rollout the aircraft remained slightly misaligned, drifting 9.0 m from the centreline, while ambient conditions were 28 °C temperature, wind 17 kt from 260°, including an 11 kt crosswind component and a 13 kt headwind.

Reduce the approach descent rate to achieve the intended threshold height and bring the threshold speed closer to target values. Aim to arrest the aircraft within the touchdown zone to limit the 539 m overshoot and maintain centreline alignment through flare and rollout.

Flare
100 %
The flare tracked the target profile exactly. Crossing the threshold 14 kt above target, the aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 961 m past the threshold. The flare cannot burn off excess energy - fix the approach speed and the float goes with it.
