Landing on runway 19 at KMKC Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport in the TBM 930

Landing Score 85.8 %

Landing Summary

The TBM 930 aircraft successfully landed at the Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport (KMKC) on runway 19, achieving an overall score of 85.8%. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 191.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 2,042 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 553 feet, which was considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 76 knots was slightly higher than ideal, indicating that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown rate was also hard, at -466 feet per minute (fpm), which may have resulted in a slightly bumpy ride for the passengers.

One notable issue with the landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was off-centerline by 38 feet. This may have been due to a combination of factors, including wind conditions and pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 17 knots from 190°, resulting in a headwind component of 17 knots and a crosswind component of 1 knot.

The total landing distance of 971 feet was relatively short, accounting for only 16% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 41 feet from the centerline, which may have been a result of the pilot's difficulty in maintaining a straight course during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the landing was successful, there were several areas for improvement, including a higher-than-ideal touchdown speed, a hard touchdown rate, and a misaligned runway touchdown position. These issues highlight the importance of proper pilot training and adherence to standard operating procedures to ensure safe and efficient landings.
