Landing on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza

Landing Score 99.68 %

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 99.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 228.0° at 1 nautical mile and 328 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 1,814 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a safe distance from the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 80 knots, which may indicate a slight deviation from the ideal approach speed.

The touchdown distance of 257 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing phase. The touchdown speed of 63 knots was also within acceptable limits, suggesting that the pilot managed to slow the aircraft down smoothly and safely. The touchdown rate of -138 feet per minute (fpm) was described as smooth, indicating that the pilot maintained a steady and controlled descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a precise alignment with the runway during the landing phase. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing conditions ideal.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating precise control and a smooth touchdown. The score of 99.7% reflects the high level of proficiency and skill displayed by the pilot during the landing phase.
