What went well

Touched down at -179 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 43 ft and 125 kt — both inside band
1.23 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — GPWS warning; Flare profile at 14 %, −0.90 points
Arrival Touchdown — Landing Bounce at 40 %, Touchdown distance was 880 m at 54 %, −0.84 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 14.61 m left at 58 %, −0.81 points

Next time

Departure

Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 122 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.

What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 48 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 48 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 48 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the PC-24 VIP aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KSAN San Diego International Airport. This process took approximately 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 27, with a takeoff distance of 999 meters, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 138 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 0 knots at 359 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 knots, a headwind of 0 knots, and a calm atmosphere. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile west of KSAN San Diego International Airport, rising from an altitude of 1,191 feet above sea level to 34,614 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,423 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 60 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 11 miles northeast of Ensenada, Mexico. This phase lasted for 82 minutes and covered a distance of 541 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 40 miles north of MMLA Rancho Las Cruces Airstrip La Paz, Mexico. The descent from 35,040 feet above sea level to 1,901 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,139 feet, took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 102 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 16 at MMSD Aeropuerto Internacional de Los Cabos was made from the north, with a heading of 175.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,560 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 16 was successful, with a touchdown point 461 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 115 knots, and the touchdown rate was good at -175 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.3 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 279 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots, a tailwind of 1 knot, and a relatively calm atmosphere. The total landing distance was 1,571 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.6 meters from the centerline.

The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took approximately 16 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 710 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 130 minutes. The aircraft used 1,657 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 16 at MMSD Aeropuerto Internacional de Los Cabos in the Pilatus PC-24
Landing Score 84.61 %
Landing Summary

The PC-24 VIP aircraft successfully landed at MMSD Aeropuerto Internacional de Los Cabos, achieving an overall score of 84.6%. The final approach to runway 16 was initiated from the north, heading 175.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,560 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown speed of 115 kt, which was slightly below the threshold speed of 126 kt. The touchdown point was located 461 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. The touchdown rate was good, at -175 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting a controlled descent.

However, there were some minor issues with the landing. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 9.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.6 meters from the centerline, indicating a slight drift during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a light wind of 2 kt at 279°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 kt, while the tailwind component was even weaker, at 1 kt. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing, despite the minor deviations from the ideal touchdown and rollout positions.

Overall, the PC-24 VIP aircraft demonstrated good handling and control during the landing, with a total landing distance of 1,571 meters, which was 52% of the available runway length. While there were some minor issues with alignment, the landing was generally successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a reasonable distance.
