The Cessna C172 established a final approach to runway 13 at KLGA LaGuardia Airport from the north-west, tracking a heading of 118.0° at 2 nm and 877 ft AGL. The approach remained on the glide path and the aircraft arrived at the threshold with a good height and a threshold speed of 62 kt.
During the flare the aircraft maintained the good threshold speed and prepared for touchdown, with the pilot achieving a touchdown speed of 52 kt that was described as good.
Touchdown occurred 175 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown rate of minus 92 fpm that was rated excellent. Lateral alignment at touchdown was slightly misaligned by 6.5 m from the centreline.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 941 m, representing 44 % of the 2,131 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was very good.
The landing earned a score of 90.0 %. Reduce the touchdown point distance to keep the aircraft within the designated touchdown zone and tighten lateral alignment to centreline for a more precise landing.
