Landing on runway 06 at KMTP Montauk Airport in the Piper PA-24-250 Comanche

Landing Score 92.68 %

Landing Summary

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at KMTP Montauk Airport, achieving a score of 92.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 42.0° at 1 nautical mile and 305 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.

The temperature at the time of landing was 22°C, with a gentle wind blowing at 4 knots from a direction of 149°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 57 knots, which was slightly below the target threshold speed.

The touchdown distance of 114 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing. The touchdown speed of 49 knots was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to smoothly transition from the approach to the landing phase. However, the touchdown rate of -252 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot could have maintained a more gradual descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, deviating by 3.5 meters from the centerline. Despite this, the pilot successfully aligned the aircraft during the rollout, achieving a very good runway rollout alignment. The total landing distance of 312 meters was 45% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control to bring the aircraft to a stop within a reasonable distance.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing phases. However, there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a more gradual descent and achieving a more precise touchdown position.
