The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, aligning itself with the runway at a heading of 47.0°, approximately 4 nautical miles away and at an altitude of 1,349 feet above ground level.
Upon reaching the final approach, the pilot demonstrated a high level of proficiency by maintaining a steady speed and altitude, ultimately touching down on the runway at a speed of 66 knots, which is well within the recommended threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 356 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The landing was further enhanced by a touchdown speed of 49 knots, which is significantly lower than the threshold speed, resulting in an excellent touchdown rate of -83 feet per minute. This indicates that the pilot was able to maintain a high degree of control throughout the landing, resulting in a smooth and stable touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 9°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 331°. This resulted in a zero crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more challenging and impressive.
The total landing distance of 724 meters, which is approximately 40% of the runway length, is a testament to the pilot's exceptional skills and the aircraft's performance. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft throughout the landing and rollout phases.
Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures, making it an exemplary example of a well-executed landing.
