Landing on runway 05R at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport in the Cessna 208B

Landing Score 98.28 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed on runway 05R at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport, achieving a high score of 98.3%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 52.0° at 0 nm and 76 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, which has a length of 2,395 meters.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 72 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to flare earlier than expected.

The touchdown distance was good, measuring 147 meters, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the touchdown speed was slightly fast at 69 knots, which may have put additional stress on the landing gear and could have affected the aircraft's ability to stop within the available runway length.

The touchdown rate was excellent, with a rate of -95 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and quickly, which is essential for maintaining control and preventing damage to the aircraft.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, being 4.3 meters off-centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the runway alignment.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot at 67°. There was no crosswind or headwind to contend with, which made the landing even more straightforward.

The total landing distance was 284 meters, which is only 12% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently, which is essential for maintaining safety and preventing damage to the aircraft.

Finally, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed after touchdown. This is essential for maintaining control and preventing the aircraft from veering off the runway. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop safely and efficiently.
